History and profile

It was named as Flying Carpet until 2009. Its fleet consists of one Swearingen SA-227 Metro 19-seat turboprop airplane, one Piper PA-28, one Piper PA-32 and one Piper PA-34. In 2006 it received two Boeing 737-200 formerly owned by Southwest Airlines and Delta Air Lines and later received a Bombardier CRJ-200ER formerly owned by Independence Air. The airline flies several routes, mainly to Iraq. In August 2007 it also offered a direct service from Beirut to Berlin and Hanover in Germany. Its owner, Mazen Bsat, acquired the defunct Trans Mediterranean Airways with plans to restart its operations.
