The 3 airlines that have entered insolvency in 2026 with 1,000s of flights cancelled

Financial distress and reduced demand amid industry turbulence caused three airlines to enter insolvency in 2026, cancelling over 4,000 flights, mostly from Royal Air Philippines.

  • A wave of airline insolvencies in 2026 includes Dove Airlines, Royal Air Philippines, and EcoJet Airlines, forcing around 4,000 flight cancellations between January and March.
  • Industry turbulence in 2025 spilled into 2026, forcing Royal Air Philippines into administration after decreased flight numbers in recent years, Philstar Global said.
  • Companies House records list EcoJet Airlines in liquidation; Opus Restructuring appointed liquidators last month and said 'EcoJet was a start-up business and has no material assets'.
  • The airline is working to provide affected passengers with refunds, according to the Daily Express, as four UK travel firms have ceased trading and lost ATOL licences.
  • The collapses raise questions for regional connectivity and projects, with Dove Airlines entering voluntary liquidation last month and the airline expanded its fleet with Airbus A319/A320 jets by 2020, according to Alternative Airlines.
