Alma Air Services was a Canadian-based airline that existed from 1959 to 2002. In 1980, Alma Air Services was renamed to Air Alma. Air Alma was based out of Alma, Quebec. [1] Air Alma operated aircraft like the EMB 110. As a smaller airline it is less documented but was a Canadian Airlines partner. It was the official carrier of the 35th edition of the Quebec summer games. One contributing factor to Air Alma's demise was Air Creebec as Alma struggled to keep Air Creebec out of Alma and boycotted Air Canada since Air Creebec was an Air Canada affiliate. [2] Air Alma once denied the disciplinary action but later suspended that same pilot. [3]

Air Creebec Dispute

Air Alma had a dispute with Air Creebec over landing slots in Alma, this was because the Montreal-Alma route was the core of Air Alma's business and the mayor of Alma refused to let Air Creebec gain slots at Alma. [2] In the end Air Alma ceased to exist in 2002.
