[edit] History

The airline was established by Dr Ibrahim Kamel's Kato Group, in conjunction with a consortium of Egyptian travel agents. It started operations in 1997. In 2003 EgyptAir acquired 40% (later increased to 60%) of the airline and the existing Tupolev fleet and operations were transferred to a new company, Cairo Aviation. Air Cairo was then re-positioned as a new charter airline and EgyptAir subsidiary operating domestic and international charter services.[2]
