Connecting Gabon to the world.

Headquarters
Libreville, Gabon
Gabon Airlines was a Gabonese national carrier that operated scheduled and charter flights within Central Africa and to select international destinations. The airline served as an important link for passengers traveling to and from Gabon, complementing the country's limited air connectivity. The airline operated under IATA code GY and ICAO code GBK with the callsign GABON AIRLINES. It was based in Libreville, the capital of Gabon, and used Libreville International Airport as its primary hub. Gabon Airlines faced the challenges common to small African carriers, including financial pressures, limited fleet size, and competition from larger regional operators. The airline's operational history was relatively brief, and it eventually ceased operations.
Hubs & network
