History[]
The airline was started after a ferry diaster while en route to Rockhopper Island. Penguins wanted a better way to travel to the island, in a way that was faster and more efficient. So, in 2007, an airline was started by a penguin, who was one of the wealthiest penguins in the Sub-Antarctic. He bought two aircraft, a Snowing 737-800 and a Pontrier Dash 8 Q400. The airline started service from the tiny airport of Rockhopper Island. But, airline suffered minor blows in the first year, as low loadfactprs and low customer satisfaction came in. Suddenly,in the next year, when the airline finally started service to South Pole City, the airline became increasingly popular and bought many new aircraft and started service to other cities around the continent.
