Air Mandalay

Air Mandalay is a private Myanmar airline founded in 1994, operating domestic scheduled and charter services across the country. It was one of the first private carriers to emerge following the partial liberalization of Myanmar's aviation sector, offering an alternative to the state-run Myanma Airways. The airline is headquartered in Yangon and has historically served key domestic routes linking major cities and tourist destinations such as Mandalay, Bagan, Heho, and Thandwe. It has positioned itself as a mid-tier carrier catering to both business and leisure travelers within Myanmar. Air Mandalay has faced significant operational challenges over the years, including the broader difficulties affecting Myanmar's aviation industry following political instability and the COVID-19 pandemic. Its operational status has been uncertain in recent years.
