Georgian Airways, formerly known as Airzena, is the flag carrier of Georgia and one of the oldest airlines in the South Caucasus region. Founded in 1994 following the collapse of the Soviet Union, it operates scheduled and charter flights connecting Tbilisi with destinations across Europe and the Middle East.
The airline is headquartered in Tbilisi and primarily operates out of Tbilisi International Airport.

Georgian Airways has undergone multiple rebranding and restructuring efforts over the years. Despite its relatively small fleet, it maintains connections to key European cities and serves as an important link for business and tourism to and from Georgia.
