Mekong Airlines was an airline based in Cambodia.
History
Founded in 1998 as Yana Airlines (Khmer: ក្រុមហ៊ុនអាកាសចរណ៍យ៉ាណា), the company was renamed to Mekong Airlines in 2002."Yana Airlines history from Cambodia, Rest of the World; Airline History". airlinehistory.co.uk. Mekong Airlines operated scheduled flights to several destinations in southeast Asia using a leased Boeing 737-500, which was put in service 15 January 2003 and returned on 16 October of that year, marking the end of the airline's business. The airline was made up of mostly Australian management thanks to an agreement between Australian and Cambodian investors.
