East African

East African Airlines, operating under the IATA code QU and ICAO code UGX, is a Ugandan carrier that has served regional routes across East Africa. The airline operates with the callsign CRANE, a reference to Uganda's national bird, the Grey Crowned Crane. The carrier has focused on regional connectivity within East Africa, linking Uganda with neighboring countries and providing passenger and cargo services. Like many smaller African regional carriers, it has faced the operational and financial challenges common to the continent's aviation sector. East African Airlines is a relatively small operator compared to major African carriers, and detailed public information about its current fleet and network remains limited.
