Air Libya is a privately owned charter airline based in Benghazi, Libya. It was established in 1996 as Tibesti Air Libya, and was initially based in Tripoli. The company now operates charter flights in support of oil field operations, as well as providing some scheduled and "ad hoc" charter services. Its main base is at Benina International Airport in Benghazi.[1]
AIR LIBYA was established by the late Mr. Mohamed Almukhtar Abousaif and stood out as the first privately-owned airline to receive an AOC (Air Operator Certificate) in the country. It held a unique position as the sole aviation company headquartered in Benghazi. Initially, its focus was on agricultural aviation, commencing operations with a fleet comprising six Cessna 188AG-Truck, two Zlin-137, and one Cessna 185AG-Wagon aircraft. Two years later, the company expanded its fleet by acquiring a Cessna C402C and C421C.[2]
It is on the List of airlines banned in the European Union.[3]
