Euralair was a charter airline based in France. Euralair was founded in October 1962 by Alexandre Couvelaire as an air-taxi and executive charter company. In 1966 it became charter airline and operated its first charter flights in 1968 when it received the first Fokker F-27 (F-BRHL) on November 11, 1968, and the second (F-BRQL) on October 15, 1969; the last one sold to the Swiss company Belair (as HB-AAZ) in June 1973. In order to develop its charter activity, in November 1971 Euralair bought from Austrian Airline the first Sud Aviation Caravelle VIR (F-BSEL) and in 1973 the second (F-BTDL).David Mondey, World’s Airliner Registrations, Ian Allan Ltd., 1974,

In early 1990s the airline took the important decision to delve into scheduled flights. So, on 3 February 1992, it opened the route from Paris (Orly airport) to Madrid with the most modern jetliner of the fleet, the Boeing 737-200.
In November 2003 Euralair had to file for bankruptcy protection and was saved from liquidation when it was bought by Air Horizons.
