The airline was established in 1973.[2] It offered scheduled passenger flights from Mannheim to Oberpfaffenhofen in the 1980s and to Leipzig and Dresden in the early 1990s, following the German Reunification. In 1997, Arcus-Air Logistic set up a subsidiary named Cosmos Air, which operated scheduled flights from Mannheim to Berlin and London, using the respective city-centre airports London City Airport and now-closed Tempelhof Airport, using Dornier 328 aircraft.[3] In 1999, Cosmos Air was sold to Cirrus Airlines, bringing an end to scheduled flights operated by Arcus-Air Logistic.[3]
On 18 June 2020 Arcus Air Logistic and Arcus Air OBC were acquired by Chapman Freeborn, a subsidiary of Avia Solutions Group.[4] The two Dorniers will be owned by Chapman Freeborn but will be operated by the Arcus Air Group.
As of January 2024, the Arcus-Air fleet consists of the following aircraft:[5]

|---|---|---|
| Embraer Phenom 100 | 7 | |
| Embraer Phenom 300 | 2 | |
