Somali Airlines (Mogadishu) could resume operations in the coming weeks. According to Skyliner Aviation, a SAMair(9C, Bratislava) B737-400, OM-SDA (msn 24438), has been painted into the Somali national carrier's distinctive colours in Budapest ahead of its delivery to Mogadishu.

 

Prior to the collapse of the Siad-Barre regime in 1991, Somali Airlines had operated B720Bs, B707-300s and A310-300s on a respectable domestic network along with regional and international connections to the Middle East and Europe.

Is somaliya airlines going to be a state owned company can the country afford this . Or is it going to be in private hands if so whats the difference between this and ones already flying people to HOA region .

[Che -Guevara]

There is no Somalia Airlines.

[Presposterous]

This move should've been the last move. You have a gov which her authority only goes as far as Mogadishu city limits that yet wants to bring back a defunct useless airlines.

there is no legitimate aviation agent to own and operate somali airline, private company will take over and operate it until the government stand it's feet again. I hope they upgrade it and safe enough.
