About

Sudan Airways is the national airline of Sudan. It has recently become newsworthy due to the resumption of limited commercial flights to Khartoum International Airport after a hiatus of over two years caused by ongoing conflict in the region. The arrival of a Sudan Airways flight from Port Sudan on February 1, 2026, carrying dozens of passengers, marked the first scheduled commercial flight to the capital since the start of the war. This event is significant as it signals a potential improvement in the security situation and the Sudanese government's efforts to reassert control over Khartoum. The resumption of flights, even on a limited basis, is a crucial step towards restoring normalcy and connectivity for the Sudanese people and facilitating essential travel and commerce.
