Aden Airways to Launch 1st Trial Flight on Aden–Cairo Route On Monday

Aden Airways, a newly established airline under the Al-Qutaybi Group, has announced the launch of its first trial flight scheduled for Monday on the Aden–Cairo route.  The announcement marks a key milestone in the company’s efforts to expand Yemen’s air connectivity and revive commercial aviation amid ongoing challenges.

In a statement released by the airline, officials confirmed that the trial flight will depart from Aden International Airport and land in Cairo, serving as a preliminary test of operational readiness, safety protocols, and passenger services. The company emphasized its commitment to international aviation standards and expressed optimism about future regular flights between Yemen and Egypt.

Aden Airways is positioning itself as a strategic player in the region’s aviation sector, aiming to provide reliable and affordable air travel options for Yemeni citizens, business travelers, and humanitarian missions. The airline is expected to announce additional routes and schedules following the successful completion of its trial phase.

Industry observers view the launch as a positive step toward restoring Yemen’s access to regional air corridors, especially for travelers seeking medical care, education, and family reunification abroad. The Al-Qutaybi Group, known for its diversified investments across Yemen, has pledged to support the airline’s growth and ensure its long-term sustainability.
