Afghanistan's leading private commercial airline.
Founded
2003
Headquarters
Kabul, Afghanistan
Kam Air is a privately owned Afghan airline founded in 2003, making it one of the first private airlines to operate in Afghanistan following the fall of the Taliban regime. The carrier provides domestic and international scheduled passenger services, connecting Kabul with destinations across the Middle East, Central Asia, and South Asia.
The airline has played a significant role in rebuilding civil aviation infrastructure in Afghanistan and has served as a vital link for Afghan diaspora communities and business travelers. Despite operating in one of the world's most challenging aviation environments, Kam Air has maintained scheduled operations for over two decades.
Following the Taliban's return to power in August 2021, Kam Air's operations were significantly disrupted, and the airline faced major uncertainty. However, it has intermittently resumed limited flights as the situation in Afghanistan evolved.
