FlyKiezyn

== About ==
FlyKiezyn (Zedrutian Polish: LataćKiezyn) was the flag carrier of Zedrutia from 1925 to 2085. It is one of Zedrutia's largest airliners, with it being the most preferred airline to many Zedrutians across the country, serving both domestic destinations across Zedrutia and international flights across Mesothemia. It is also one of the oldest airlines in the globe, having been in operation for 90 years. FlyKiezyn was created by the Zedrutian government in 1925 as a self-governing limited liability corporation, with its first hub being built in the city of Rysy, located in the Kiezyn metropolitan area. By the 2010s, FlyKiezyn has hubs all across the cities of Zedrutia, from Byeradzina in Southwestern Zedrutia, to the city of Dziatyczyn in Eastern Zedrutia, and has focus destinations in cities abroad such as Kriadavia in Bistonia, Jefferson, and finally Kradovo in Crimsonia. Their headquarters are located in the Stronabanku Tower in Kiezyn, which was once Zedrutia's first modern skyscraper in Kiezyn and the third-tallest in the world in the 1990s.
The flag carrier would meet its demise and its unfortunate end when the Third Great War erupted in the 2060s. FlyKiezyn suffered immensely due to the war as sanctions had forced companies to pull out, meaning that FlyKiezyn did not have investors to help keep them afloat during the chaotic situation. FlyKiezyn was forced to suspend all of its international destinations and only operated domestic flights, until soon shortages which came as a result of the war soon brought fuel shortages, meaning that there was not enough fuel for FlyKiezyn's massive fleets, and soon had to lay off most of its workers. The airline was forced to stop their domestic flights in 2078, when the Bistonians began their invasion of Zedrutia and had occupied most of Zedrutia and resulted in Leslaw Olek's government being overthrown by the Bistonians, putting Zedrutia under occupation. FlyKiezyn was allowed to operate its flights, but had overall stopped civilian flights, only being permitted to operate flights which transported humanitarian aid and supplies to other areas on the frontlines. The company soon moved to Jozefka. FlyKiezyn effectively ended during the outbreak of the nuclear exchange, in which most Zedrutian cities and the Kiezyn metropolitan area were pulverized and destroyed in the process by thermonuclear bombs.
== History ==
=== Founding ===
FlyKiezyn was founded in 1925 by the Zedrutian government. It started off as a self-governing limited liability corporation with Mikolaj Zaborski becoming the company's first CEO. It was initially called Kiezyn Airlines, which would be known as that up until the 1990s. Kiezyn Airlines officially began in 1926 when they had purchased their first two planes, organizing their first fleet the following year with Fokker F.VII planes. Kiezyn Airlines had its domestic flight, with its first plane flying from Kiezyn to New Gdansk the following year. Kiezyn Airlines was widely advertised by the Zedrutian government as a "luxury way to vacation spots through the skies", and most of its passengers were mostly wealthy Zedrutians. Some prominent celebrities in Zedrutia had also flown with Kiezyn Airlines, and had even participated in their advertisements. Kiezyn Airlines soon purchased another aircraft, which was a Fokker F-10 in 1927. By 1928, Kiezyn Airlines had opened its first international route. 
Kiezyn Airlines had its first hub in Rysy, but later on moved to Jarek Szczepan International Airport in Kiezyn, where they had also moved their headquarters. Eventually, Kiezyn had begun to rise gradually in size over the years, despite the difficulties the company had to face during the economic crisis.
=== Interwar period ===
As the 1930s had arrived, so did the airlines opportunity to expand. Kiezyn Airlines would then focus on expanding their networks overseas to simply gain profit off of it, and would begin establishing their network on the continent of Mesothemia. As they had began to establish their network, a devastating event in world history would then occur, known as the Great Depression. Unemployment skyrocketed, and inflation began rising throughout a majority of the countries in Mesothemia and around the global world, with Zedrutia being mainly affected. As a result of this, Kiezyn Airlines temporarily grounded a majority of their aircraft and continued to operate with a few dozen of their aircraft. During this period, far-right groups in Mesothemia began rising and benefitting from the devastated economies within their own countries, and as their numbers grew, they began an immediate purge of Jews and those who had sympathized with them.
Kiezyn Airlines, being an airline originating from a country which sympathized Jews and had the largest Jewish minority in Mesothemia at the time, would become the main target of these far-right groups, and Mikolaj Zaborski, who was the chairman and founder of the airline at the time until 1938, had been accused of sympathizing with the Jews. As most of these had convinced the far-right groups enough to attack them, they began an immediate boycott of Kiezyn Airlines, by storming a majority of the airfields and damaging most of their grounded aircraft, resulting in over tens of thousands of damaged property. At one point, some had carried out the aircrafts out of the hangar, and proceeded to paint anti-semitic words over the fuselage. As a result, this subsequently led to Mikolaj revoking their plans and suspended their network to Mesothemia, in retaliation for the boycotts. Throughout the rest of the 30s and 40s, Kiezyn Airlines continued to remain operating, despite its damaged reputation by others.
=== Second Great War ===
In the year of 1939, the Ruralian State declared war on the Prozhnian Republic, immediately resulting in the beginning of the Second Great War. Despite a majority of the chaos which had began in Mesothemia, Zedrutia remained largely intact and managed to survive for over a few years. As the war broke out in Mesothemia, Kiezyn Airlines continued to operate until 1941. Prior to the invasion, Kiezyn Airlines would then try out once again in attempting to expand their network overseas, by creating their network in the city of Jefferson. This however, was not such a successful attempt at expanding their network. In the aftermath of the Great Depression, Zedrutia was crippled, and Kiezyn Airlines was unfortunately unable to keep up the costs of their fleets. It was on the verge of closing, until in the year of 1941.
During that same year, Ruralia would subsequently declare war on Zedrutia, in which Zedrutia was quickly ill prepared. The country fell in weeks, as the Zedrutian military was unable to form defenses against Ruralian forces and their allies, which had been advancing at a rapid pace. During the last weeks of the country, 5 planes belonging to Kiezyn Airlines were in flight at the time, and unfortunately did not reach their destination, as they were shot down by the Ruralian airforce, with all of the planes landing down crashing onto fields. As Zedrutia's capital fell, it was clear that everybody had to flee until it was too late. Kiezyn Airlines eventually ceased operations 5 days after the fall of Kiezyn, and its CEO, resigned and fled that same day to Bistonia, where there despite being under Crimmitonian control, had little to no presence of Ruralian troops. 
=== Nowy Wielki Rezim ===
In 1943, Zedrutia was liberated by the Allied Forces, and as it was under brief occupation, Kiezyn Airlines was brought back from the grave and was revitalized. The CEO which had fled from Zedrutia years prior, returned to Kiezyn and became the CEO once again. It did continue operations from there, but Kiezyn Airlines remained frozen till the year of 1946, when the CEO resigned and a new one came to be selected. During that same year, the Zedrutian Armed Forces, revitalized with the help of the Allied Forces during the occupation, overthrew the provisional government, and establishing a dictatorship known in Zedrutia today as Nowy Wielki Rezim, otherwise known as the New Grand Regime. In the beginning of the 1950s, the Jet Age began, and would provide an opportunity for Kiezyn Airlines. It then sold off their old fleet made out of turboprop aircrafts, and purchased new aircrafts, which unfortunately, due to their poor quality as they were produced in the post-war era at the time, would have 2 crashes due to the problems, and would become the airlines first incident unrelated to a conflict.
Prior to the events of 1969, Kiezyn Airlines would then continue to operate, albeit only operating in mainland Zedrutia and didn't expand their network globally, due to the military government's restrictions at the time. Despite all the limits being set, Kiezyn Airlines would continue to operate, and managed to stay afloat despite the major issues within the country regarding living conditions and the economy. As the Zedrutian Revolution began in the year of 1969, Kiezyn Airlines would temporarily halt their operations and ground a majority of their planes. As the riots grew and grew in sheer size, several aircraft belonging to Kiezyn Airlines would be damaged, but one case it was severe, as a rioter had purposely threw a molotov cocktail into the engine of a plane, resulting in the plane exploding. All passengers onboard perished as a result. In the aftermath during the beginning of the 70s, a provisional government was set up, and as the country had opened up, Kiezyn Airlines would then begin to expand rapidly. Their fleets would be replaced with over hundreds of Boeing 707's and Boeing 727s, and would gain a ton of profit which would allow them to improve their airline.
=== Stronabanku Tower ===
In the year of 1972, Kiezyn Airlines would invest over a hundred million dollars in order to construct a large skyscraper building located in Kiezyn, which would serve as the main headquarters of the airline. It would have over 65 floors, and rooms containing large computer servers which booked airlines and hotel reservations, installed in 1978. It would become the first one outside of the United States of Megaton and Columbia, as it would contain large information about hotels, airports and several other destinations across mainland Zedrutia. Construction began in 1971 along the banks of the river in the city of Kiezyn, which took over 5 years. As the tower was finished, it was finally given a name, known as the Stronabanku Tower. It would become the first modern skyscraper in Zedrutia, and the third largest skyscraper in Zedrutia at the time. However, despite this massive accomplishment, disaster unfortunately struck the tower. As the economic crisis was a huge devastating blow to the Zedrutian economy in 1976, and with the Stronabanku Tower finished recently in 1978, the Stronabanku Tower was left a shell of what it was intended to be. It was largely understaffed, and a majority of its floors were left abandoned. Sections of the Stronabanku Tower was largely unfinished, and electricity in the skyscraper would barely work.
Media coverage over the Stronabanku Tower was extensive throughout mainland Zedrutia. Some journalists would describe the Stronabanku Tower as the most useless megaproject in all of Zedrutia, with some describing the tower as a representation of Zedrutia's economic crisis. Some had even called for the demolition of the Stronabanku Tower, which would be immensely costly to do so. In response, Kiezyn Airlines defended the purpose of the Stronabanku Tower, claiming that they were making slow progress on managing the tower. Unfortunately, they would not fulfill their demands, as they pulled out of the Stronabanku Tower, the same company which invested hundreds of millions of dollars into the construction of the tower, in the year of 1980, citing safety concerns. Despite its abandonment, the Stronabanku Tower remained in pristine condition, with some of Zedrutia's elites wishing to purchase the building. Every floor had been cleaned regularly, which helped the tower to remain in a stable condition. Fortunately, after almost 6 years of abandonment, Kiezyn Airlines announced that it was going to move their headquarters into the tower, and the tower underwent a massive renovation which was completed in 1990. To this day, Stronabanku Tower would remain open, and several renovations had added new features and additions to the tower, such as a splendid view on the rooftop of the skyscraper.
=== Zedrutian economic crisis ===
In the year of 1976, following economic decline and fallout from the fuel crisis, the Zedrutian economic crisis occurred, and during that period Zedrutia eventually fell into chaos, and lost their control over Kromzamske and Tarnochowice to rebels. During this period, FlyKiezyn, as it had been devastated from the economic crisis, would then resort to using smaller planes and then close their network across several cities in an effort to reduce costs, and grounded a majority of its large aircraft as it had been too costly to maintain. It also had to abandon some of their efforts and investment into the Stronabanku Tower, which was planned to be the tallest skyscraper in Zedrutia at the time, and would be abandoned for years. Throughout most of the years from 1976 to 1979, FlyKiezyn lost over hundreds of thousands of dollars attempting to keep their operations afloat. The airline then soon fell into heavy debt, and there was little money to keep the airline functional. Prior to 1986, when the decade long crisis had already ended, only 4 medium range airplanes continued to operate nationwide. By the end of the Zedrutian Economic Crisis, FlyKiezyn would then return and recover from the economic devastation.
=== Crisis in the Federation Civil War ===
In 1979, following a series of escalating tensions within the St. Ark Federation, and the subsequent overthrow of Rodney Faron Lenn's government, Fred Goldlock would eventually consolidate power over the entire country, resulting in the beginning of the Federation Civil War between those who were loyal to Fred Goldlock and those who had resisted and opposed against Fred Goldlock's tyranny. Because of the chaotic events, a majority of the cities in the St. Ark Federation were either set ablaze, or bombed. The Federation Civil War would then spread and then eventually it would focus on who would gain air superiority, with airports being captured and destroyed as a result of heavy clashes between the two sides. As some airlines managed to pull out and managed to retrieve their aircraft intact, FlyKiezyn and Orange Airlines did not manage to pull out of the country nor did they managed to retrieve the aircraft intact. Compared to Orange Airlines, FlyKiezyn was declining rapidly, in which it did not have the budget to retrieve or maintain a majority of their aircraft fleet in the Heightsbound International Airport. 
After which clashes became more and more frequent, the St. Ark Armed Forces would focus on an approach in order to make sure rebel forces did not confiscate aircraft which would allow them to gain air superiority. They proceeded to torch a majority of the aircraft stationed in most airports and in other cases, artillery barrage would destroy the hangars in which FlyKiezyn aircraft were grounded inside. Some aircraft that managed to survive the barrages would then be set ablaze, destroying most of the components to the point mechanics were unable to repair most of it. As the days reached, the extent of the damage was revealed. A majority of FlyKiezyn's aircraft, including the larger Boeing 747s, were discovered to be all completely destroyed, with not a single piece of the plane intact. The remains of the aircraft would continue to be left behind, until in 1981 when Fred Goldlock revitalized a majority of the airports, removing the Boeing 747 aircrafts. FlyKiezyn, being informed of the loss of millions of dollars as a result of the aircraft, then pulled out their operations and from that point on, FlyKiezyn would permanently cease their operations in the St. Ark Federation, in retaliation for the damage done to their aircraft.
=== Recovery ===
In 1986, almost 10 years after Kiezyn Airlines had lost a majority of their assets, first by selling off their large fleets and abandoning their proposed headquarters of the Stronabanku Tower, the Zedrutian Economic Crisis later on would be put to a close, as the second golden era for Zedrutia would begin. As the country recovered, FlyKiezyn would slowly come back. 
In 1984-1985, After the stocks and economy of the airline stablized, FlyKiezyn sold out outdated planes that were left behind during the economic crisis. Most of it were Boeing 767s, Airbus A310s, newer generation Boeing 747s, including various Zedrutian-made planes. As they received more money, in 1986 the company announced that the Stronabanku tower will enter renovations. 
In 1986 during renovations, a mysterious incident happened during renovations, as many workers were infected by an unknown diesase. After renovation stopped for a temporary time, mold was spotted on various floors that was life-threatening. As the information began spread to publicity, many conspiracy theorists wrote theories about what actually happened. FlyKiezyn responded to the news and quickly decided to hire a mold remediation company to deal with the problem.
As time passed by, the Stronabanku tower in 1987 was open even if it was still in renovation, many tourists were interested in visiting the large tower. However a new tower was finished in 1988 that suprassed the height of Stronabanku, causing it to lose tourist attraction.
