airLithuanica (Vilnius) is a newly-proposed airline in Lithuania to replace FlyLAL which ceased operations on January 16, 2009.

According to this report by ATO.ru, Vilnius Mayor Arturas Zuokas stated city officials will possibly participate in the creation of a new airline named airLituanica. The proposed makeup is 34% of the new airline to be owned by the city of Vilnius, 49% by a prospective strategic investor and 17% by other shareholders in Lithuania.
