Maersk Air UK

Maersk Air UK Ltd was one of two airlines formed by the demerger of Brymon European Airways (the other was Brymon Airways). It was owned by Maersk Air of Denmark and was based at Birmingham Airport (BHX). In June 2003 the owners sold the company to a management team who renamed it Duo Airways. For the duration of its existence the airline operated as a British Airways franchise from Birmingham, flying a number of European routes and domestic routes to Newcastle and Belfast International.

Fleet

The initial fleet consisted of a number of ex-British Airways BAC 1-11 400 & 500 series aircraft, as well as a BAe Jetstream 31 that operated on the Newcastle route. The parent airline facilitated fleet replenishment when the 1-11s were found to be beyond noise-compliance upgrading and Boeing 737-500's joined the fleet for a time. At the time of sale in 2003, Maersk Air Uk was a Bombardier Bombardier CRJ100/200 and 700 series operator.
