Belle Air (Tirana) has announced a new "regional carrier alliance" which includes sister carrier Belle Air Europe (Ancona) and Darwin Airline (Lugano). The carriers plan to jointly use their fleets through dry and wet lease arrangements, enter codeshare and ticketing agreements and aim to find cost synergies by combining some of their procurement processes. Belle Air operates 2 A320-200s, 2 A319-100s and 2 ATR 72-500s from its base at Tirana, Belle Air Europe operates an A320-200 and an A319-100 predominantly on routes from Pristina and Skopje. The two carriers already share their fleet today. Darwin has six Saab 2000s based at Geneva, Lugano and Rimini.
