Swissair was founded on 26 March 1931 after the merger of the two main competing Swiss airlines, Ad Astra Aero AG and Balair (Balair\'s legal name was Basler Luftverkehr).

The new airline was legally named Schweizerischer Luftverkehrs AG but went under the commonly used name of Swissair.

First Swissair flights were using the fleet of Fokker 7B/3M aircraft on domestic and European services - those same routes that the two merged carriers had flown. An early 1930s Swissair poster depicting one of its Fokker 7B airliners is show below.
