Camair-co (Cameroon Airlines Corporation) is the national airline of Cameroon, established to replace the defunct Cameroon Airlines (Camair) which ceased operations in 2008. The airline began commercial operations in March 2011, offering domestic and regional services across Central and West Africa.
The carrier is state-owned and operated under the supervision of the Cameroonian government. It has faced significant operational and financial challenges since its inception, including fleet shortages, funding difficulties, and periodic service suspensions that have hampered its growth and reliability.
Despite these challenges, Camair-co serves as a vital link between Cameroon's major cities and connects the country to select international destinations in Africa and beyond, playing an important role in the nation's aviation infrastructure.
Hubs & network
Camair-co's primary hub is Douala International Airport (DLA), with secondary operations at Yaoundé Nsimalen International Airport (NSI).

Camair-co has operated a small mixed fleet including Boeing 737 and Boeing 767 aircraft, though fleet composition has varied due to financial and operational constraints.
