Point Air
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Point Air was a French airline company operating a McDonnell Douglas DC8-63 on a route from Marseille and Mulhouse/Bale to Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.
Point Air was famous for its low prices, before the age of low-cost airlines.[citation needed]
The airline started operations in 1980. Build on the remains of the French Antillan SATT, the Swiss-registered Point Air went into a politically-enforced bankruptcy in 1988.
