Kogalymavia (Russian: ООО «Авиакомпания Когалымавиа»), DBA Metrojet (IATA: 7K, ICAO: KGL), was a Russian airline based in Kogalym, Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug. Its home base was at Kogalym International Airport, with the main hub at Domodedovo International Airport in Moscow. It suspended all operations in December 2015.
Kogalymavia started operations in May 1993. Since 2005 the airline flew mostly international charter services to leisure destinations under the brand name Kolavia.
In May 2012, Kogalymavia changed its marketing branding from Kolavia to Metrojet as part of their then newly established joint-venture with TUI Russia & CIS, a subsidiary of German tourism company TUI Travel.
