Airlines of Tasmania was a regional Australian carrier operating scheduled and charter passenger services within the island state of Tasmania. The airline focused on linking smaller regional communities with larger Tasmanian centres, serving routes that were otherwise difficult to access by road or sea. The carrier operated under the IATA code FO and ICAO designator ATM, with the radio callsign AIRTAS. It played an important role in supporting remote and rural Tasmanian communities that depended on air connectivity for business, medical, and personal travel. Airlines of Tasmania operated as a small regional operator and, like many similar carriers in Australia, faced ongoing commercial challenges associated with low passenger volumes and the high costs of maintaining services to thin regional routes.
