Aerotransportes Litoral Argentino was founded in 1957. In 1966, Austral acquired a 30% stake in Aerotransportes Litoral Argentino, and the services of both companies were integrated. In June 1971, the two airlines formally merged under the name ALA (Austral Lineas Aereas). At this point, their common fleet was made up of BAC111 jets, NAMC YS-11 turboprops and some older propliners including Commandos.
