JSC "Donavia" (Russian: ОАО «Донавиа») was an Aeroflot subsidiary[2] airline based in Rostov-on-Don, Russia.
Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, it was rebranded as Don Airlines ("Donavia") in 1993.
It absorbed the Rostov assets of Aeroflot, and was one of many such "Babyflots" to emerge in the early 1990s.
However, the airline was purchased by Aeroflot in 2000 and began to operate as Aeroflot-Don on 13 April 2000.
