'''Sudan Airways''' ({{langx|ar|الخطوط الجوية السودانية}}) is the [[national airline]] of [[Sudan]],<ref name="Sudan Airways problems “unsolvable”, says former official" /> headquartered in [[Khartoum]]. Since 2012, the company has been fully owned by the [[Government of Sudan]].<ref name="Sudan Dreams Big With New Airports"/>

One of the oldest African [[Air carrier|carriers]],<ref name="Sudan Airways problems “unsolvable”, says former official" /> it was formed in {{start date|1946|2}} and started scheduled operations in July the following year. {{As of|2011|12}}, Sudan Airways had 1,700 employees.<ref name="Sanctions are hell" /> The airline has been included in the [[list of air carriers banned in the European Union]] {{as of|2010|3|alt=since {{start date|2010|3}}}}.

==History==
An Air Advisory Board was formed in 1945 to assess on the feasibility of starting air services in the country, recommending to set up an air company with the aid of foreign [[Air carrier|carrier]]s that would provide their technical and management expertise. Initially, the new airline would restrict its operations to on-demand services.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=202}} Sudan Airways was formed in February 1946 with the technical assistance of [[Airwork Services|Airwork Limited]], and the commercial support of Sudan Railways.<ref name="Profile" />{{rp|89}} 

[[File:DH.104 Dove 1 ST-AAE Sudan Aws CVT 08.04.67 edited-2.jpg|thumb|left|[[De Havilland Dove]] of Sudan Airways in 1967]]

The initial fleet was composed of four [[de Havilland Dove]]s, with test flights commencing in {{start date|1947|4}}.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=202}} The first scheduled operations were launched in July the same year,<ref name="Profile"/>{{rp|90}} with the first timetable being published in September.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=202}} Khartoum became Sudan Airways' [[airline hub|hub]] from the very beginning. From there, the carrier started flying four different services all across the [[Sudan]]ese territory, as well as to the not yet independent [[Eritrea]]. The first routes the company flew linked Khartoum with [[Asmara]], [[Atbara]], [[Al-Fashir|El Fashir]], [[Al-Ubayyid|El Obeid]], [[Geneina]], [[Juba, South Sudan|Juba]], [[Kassala]], [[Malakal]], and [[Port Sudan]], all of them served by de Havilland Dove aircraft.<ref name="Profile"/>{{rp|90}} An Airwork [[Vickers VC.1 Viking|Viking]] flew the [[Blackbushe]]–Khartoum long-haul route. A fifth Dove was ordered in {{start date|1948|1}}. That year, a route to [[Wadi Halfa]] was launched. Sudan Railways withdrew from the airline's management in 1949; the government and Airwork continued running the company thereafter.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=202}}

[[File:Douglas C-47B ST-AAK Sudan EMA 01.07.71 edited-2.jpg|thumb|right|Sudan Airways [[Douglas DC-3|Douglas C-47B]] in 1971]]

Kassala and Asmara were removed from the airline{{'s}} list of destinations in 1952. In February that year, a fifth Dove was phased in. There was such a demand for flying that the toilets on the Doves were removed to make room for more seats, with these aircraft even carrying passengers in the cockpit. This prompted the airline to look for newer and bigger airliners, with the [[Douglas DC-3]] and the [[de Havilland Heron]] being under consideration.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=202}} Flown with [[Auster Aircraft|Auster]]s and [[de Havilland Dove|Dove]]s, by {{start date|1953|3}} the carrier was operating a domestic network that was {{convert|3000|mi|km|order=flip}} long.<ref name="Flight1953-312" /> That year, the carrier incorporated the first four [[DC-3]]s into the fleet.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=202}} The boost in capacity allowed the company to carry both passengers and mail, to introduce new regular routes to [[Cairo]] and [[Wad Medani]],<ref name="Profile"/>{{rp|91}} and to carry out aerial survey tasks for the government.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=202}} Also in 1953, the [[Chad]]ian city of [[Abeche]] was made part of the route network, whereas regular flights to [[Jeddah]] were launched in {{start date|1954|6}}.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=203}} Services to [[Athens]] commenced in the mid-1950s. Two more DC-3s were bought in 1956.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=203}} In 1958, after taking office, the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces decided to expand the carrier's international operations.<ref name="Profile"/>{{rp|91}} A seventh DC-3 was incorporated into the fleet that year.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=203}} [[Flight length#Long-haul flights|Long-haul service]]s started in June 1959 between Khartoum and [[London]] via [[Rome]] –the so-called "Blue Nile" service<ref name="FI1962-747" />– using a [[Vickers Viscount variants|Viscount 831]] that was acquired new earlier that year in a joint venture with [[British United Airways]].<ref name="Profile"/>{{rp|91}} [[Beirut]] was added to the destination network in November the same year.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=203}} Also in 1959, the airline joined IATA.<ref name="Flight1959-805" />

In 2017, it was announced that the Sudanese President Omar al Bashir signed several cooperation agreements with King Salman of Saudi Arabia during a visit to Riyadh. Among the agreements was a pledge from the Saudi General Authority of Civil Aviation to restructure SAR22.5 million riyals (US$6 million) worth of debt. In addition, provisions for fleet renewal at Sudan Airways were also made. It was reported Saudi Arabia may equip the Sudan Airways with fourteen aircraft including three B777s, three A320-200s, six Embraer Regional Jets, and two A330-200s.<ref>{{Cite web | url=http://www.arabianaerospace.aero/sudan-airways-in-saudi-refleeting-deal.html |title = Arabian Aerospace - Sudan Airways in Saudi refleeting deal}}</ref>
