History

Neos was established on 22 June 2001 as a joint venture between two tourism companies, the Italian Alpitour S.p.A. and the German TUI Group. Revenue flights were launched on 8 March 2002. In January 2004 however, TUI sold its entire shares to Alpitour. Neos used to be part of TUI Airlines until then and today has no affiliation to the TUI Group anymore. As of March 2007, the company had 330 employees.[4]
