Buryat Airlines

The airline was established in 1933 as Buryatia Air Enterprise. It became independent from state control in 1993 and was formerly known as Buryatia Airlines. Since 2002, the airline has curtailed its operations including services to Moscow-Domodedovo; and retiring many of its aircraft including Tu-154M, Il-62M, L-410 and An-26, due to large financial losses.

The airline went defunct in 2017, due to failure to follow the laws in the technical service of the aircraft. The regional flights across Buryatia to Taksimo and Nizhneangarsk were served by Angara Airlines instead.
