The airline was founded as a private company under the name Business Flyers Basel AG in 1975 by the Swiss aviation legend, Moritz Suter. The name later changed to Crossair on 18 November 1978, before the beginning of scheduled services on 2 July 1979, with flights from Zürich to Nuremberg, Innsbruck and Klagenfurt. It was headquartered at Zurich Airport in Kloten, Switzerland in 1985. It added charter services for major shareholder Swissair in November 1995.
After parent company SAirGroup had to apply for a debt restructuring moratorium in October 2001, it became necessary to change the entire planning. On 31 March 2002, Swissair ceased all operations while most of its assets were taken over by Crossair which then was subsequently restructured and rebranded to become Swiss International Air Lines.
