Clic Air (formerly known as EasyFly and officially Empresa Aérea de Servicios y Facilitación Logística Integral S.A.) is a regional airline that operates in Colombia. Its main focus is to serve intermediate cities and those not served by other carriers. Operations started in October 2007, with one British Aerospace Jetstream 41 aircraft. Its main base is El Dorado International Airport, Bogotá. Alfonso Ávila, the founder of EasyFly, was also one of the founders of Aero República in 1992.
History
The airline was founded as EasyFly in 2006 by Alfonso Ávila and other partners. Its first aircraft have been acquired through the leasing system. After having 9 approved routes, operations began on October 10, 2007, with only two routes: Barrancabermeja and Arauca from Bogotá. Between November 2007 and January 2008, new routes were inaugurated to the cities of Armenia, Cartago, Yopal, Ibague and Villavicencio.
During 2010, 7 aircraft entered the fleet and in 2012, a new base was inaugurated at Ernesto Cortissoz International Airport.
In 2018, EasyGroup, licensor of the EasyJet brand, began legal proceedings against EasyFly and Honduras-based EasySky over use of the "easy" prefix. In April 2019, EasyGroup statement focused on this case indicated a claim against Colombia's EasyFly was ongoing.
In 2019, the British Aerospace Jetstream 41 left the fleet and gave way to a fleet entirely composed of ATRs.
On July 8, 2023, EasyFly announced that it will be renamed as Clic Air, after the legal process filed by EasyGroup. The airline officially rebranded on August 15, 2023.
