- Kristiansund (Kristiansund Airport, Kvernberget)
- Oslo (Oslo Gardermoen Airport)
- Stavanger (Stavanger Airport, Sola)
The 32 seater aircraft are also used for private charters.
The City Star Airlines fleet consists of:
- 3 x Dornier 328-110 (as of January 2006).[1]
- At 2100 BST on 22 June 2006, a City Star Airlines Dornier 328 (TF-CSB) operating a passenger flight from Stavanger, Norway, overshot the end of the runway at Aberdeen Airport by several hundred yards as it came in to land. None of the 16 passengers and 3 crew members on board were injured. The incident caused the airline to announce a suspension of all flight operations on 23 June 2006. However, the airline resumed services the following day.[citation needed]
- UK Air Accidents Investigation Branch have recommended a safety audit of the airline after a serious incident in which a Dornier 328 crew flew close to cliffs and failed to respond correctly to terrain warnings on approach to Sumburgh Airport after a flight from Aberdeen. The aircraft landed safely. The captain involved was suspended and asked to resign after an investigation.[2]
