UTair is a Russian airline with its head office at Khanty-Mansiysk Airport, while its main base is at Surgut International Airport and Vnukovo International Airport. It operates scheduled domestic and some international passenger services, scheduled helicopter services as well as extensive charter flights with fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters in support of the oil and gas industry across Western Siberia.
In February 1967, the Aeroflot Tyumen Directorate was set up in order to meet the transport requirements of the fast-growing oil and gas industry undergoing development in Western Siberia. In the wake of the break-up of the Aeroflot organization, Tyumenaviatrans Aviation (TAT) was formed in 1991 to replace the Aeroflot Tyumen Directorate. TAT adopted the name of UTair in early 2003. The airline is owned by Khanty Mansiysk District administration (23%), Surgut City administration (19%), Russian shareholders and companies (33%), the Russian Federation (2%), and private foreign investors (20%).
On October 31, 2017 Utair announced rebranding changing airlines name spelling from previous "UTair Aviation" to actual "Utair".
