OJSC Atlant-Soyuz Airlines was founded and started operations in June 1993, offering passenger and cargo flights using Soviet-build aircraft. The first Boeing airplane was added to the fleet in 2006.[1] In 2007, the company was owned by private investors (75 percent) and the City of Moscow (25 percent) and had 726 employees.[2] Initial plans for a joint-venture with US-based cargo airline Evergreen International Airlines where brought forth in 2007, but never materialized.[3]

Following this step, all Ilyushin Il-76 cargo aircraft were removed from the fleet, marking the end of dedicated cargo flights.[4] On 17 January 2011, Moscow Airlines discontinued all flight activities, and the company went into liquidation.[5]
