Compagnie Aérienne Corse Méditerranée S.A.E.M. (Corsican: Cumpagnia Aerea Corsa Mediterrania), trading as Air Corsica (formerly CCM Airlines), is the flag carrier of the French insular region of Corsica, with its head office on the grounds of Ajaccio Napoléon Bonaparte Airport in Ajaccio, Corsica. It operates passenger services from Corsica to continental France. Its main base is Ajaccio Napoleon Bonaparte Airport, with hubs at Figari–Sud Corse Airport, Bastia – Poretta Airport and Calvi – Sainte-Catherine Airport.

History

The company was founded on January 1, 1989, by Pierre Philippe Ceccaldi to improve flight connections to Corsica. Its first flight took place in June 1990 under the name Compagnie Corse Méditerranée, later becoming CCM Airlines, and eventually adopting the name Air Corsica.

In October 2010, it changed its name to Air Corsica.

In December 2019, with the arrival of its first Airbus A320neo, Air Corsica became the first French operator of the A320neo.

Air Corsica operates certain flights as a franchise for Air France and ITA Airways. Air Corsica outsources its passenger service system, which manages reservations, inventory and pricing to Amadeus using the Altéa system.
