History
The airline operated under JAR OPS 1 in Europe, but was also FAA part 129 certified, allowing it to fly commercially in the US and Canada.[2]

In December 2005, a Dassault Falcon 2000 joined the growing fleet of Jetalliance when it was delivered brand new from the manufacturer [3] In 2006 the company announced orders for an Airbus A319 Corporate Jet and an Airbus A318 Elite jetliner.[2] In January 2006 the airline announced an order for 28 aircraft of the Cessna Citation family.[4] Jetalliance has ordered two further Airbus A318 Elite aircraft (following the initial order for a single aircraft in June 2006) and wanted to furnish them with a 14-seat deluxe interior.[5]
In November 2012, the company filed for bankruptcy, the claims amounted to approximately €28.9 millions.[6] In October 2013, it was decided to close down and liquidate the company.[7]
