Regional Indian carrier connecting underserved destinations.
Founded
2007
Headquarters
Gurgaon, India
MDLR Airlines was a small Indian private airline that operated regional scheduled passenger services within India. The carrier used the IATA code 9H and operated under the callsign MDLR, targeting routes not heavily served by larger Indian carriers.
The airline faced significant financial and operational challenges shortly after beginning operations, which ultimately led to the suspension of its services. MDLR Airlines ceased operations in 2009, making it one of several Indian low-cost and regional carriers that struggled to survive in a highly competitive and cost-intensive aviation environment.
The airline was associated with the MDLR Group, an Indian conglomerate with interests in real estate and infrastructure. Its fleet was small and its network limited, and it never managed to establish a sustainable long-term presence in the Indian aviation market.
Hubs & network
MDLR Airlines primarily operated out of airports in northern India, including Chandigarh Airport.
Fleet
MDLR Airlines operated a small fleet of Beechcraft 1900D turboprop aircraft on its regional routes.
