==History== The airline was established and soon started operations in June 1997. Jonathan Gordon (managing director of LyddAir) acquired Lydd Airport in June 1996 and a year later started Sky-Trek Airlines as a wholly owned subsidiary of his aviation consultancy, Atlantic Bridge Aviation. It was relaunched as LyddAir in April 2002. The airline is wholly owned by South East Airports and has seven employees (at March 2007).
