History


The origins of the airline trace back to November 1946 (1946-11), when South West Air Transport (SWAT) was established. Using Ryan Navion aircraft, this carrier started operations in 1949 linking Windhoek with Grootfontein.[nb 1] Charter and cargo flights were also undertaken. In 1950, the company started feeder services for South African Airways. By 1958, a fleet of seven Ryan Navions and one de Havilland Dragon Rapide served a route network that included Grootfontein, Tsumeb, Otjiwarongo, Outjo, Swakopmund, Walvis Bay and Windhoek.[8] On 26 March 1959,[9] SWAT merged with Oryx Aviation — a small passenger airline established three years earlier[10]— to form South West Airways (Afrikaans: Suidwes Lugdiens).[11][12]IATA membership was gained later that year.[13]


Two Cessna 205s were purchased, entering the fleet in December 1962 (1962-12) and eventually replacing the Navions.[8]Namibair, set up as a charter airline in 1963, became a subsidiary company of Suidwes Lugdiens in 1966.[14] In 1969, Safmarine acquired a 50% stake in Suidwes,[14] eventually boosting its participation to 85%.[15] At February 1970 (1970-02), the Suidwes fleet comprised four Piper Aztecs, one de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver, two Piper PA-28 Cherokees, one Cessna 182, one Cessna 205, one Cessna 206, one Cessna 402, three Douglas DC-3s and five Piper PA-30 Twin Comanches; at this time the carrier had 45 employees.[16] A Fairchild-Hiller FH-227 was acquired in 1974, and a Convair 580 was later incorporated into the fleet to perform charter flights carrying miners to their jobs in Grootfontein and Tsumeb.[8]


Suidwes merged into Namib Air on 1 December 1978.[7][8] The South West African government became the major shareholder in 1982.[17] Following the creation of the South West Africa National Transport Corporation in 1986, Namib Air took over all air transport operations in the country.[18] The airline was designated as the country's flag carrier in 1987.[7][18] That year, two 19-seater Beech 1900s were bought. In 1988, the company was incorporated into the Namibian state-owned holding company Transnamib.[10] On 6 August 1989, a Boeing 737-200 leased from South African Airways that flew the Windhoek–Johannesburg route inaugurated the carrier's jet era.[19][20] In October the same year, a third Beech 1900 was incorporated into the fleet.[10]

Services to Lusaka and Luanda were launched in 1990 and 1991, respectively.[10] Following the independence of the country, the company was re-christened again, adopting the current name of Air Namibia in October 1991 (1991-10).[7] The early 1990s also saw the launch of long-haul services to Europe: the Windhoek–Frankfurt route started being flown in 1991 twice a week using a Boeing 747SP, and London was included into the route network in 1992,[17] with a non-stop flight.[21] In 1993, services to Frankfurt, which were served twice-weekly, were also extended to London.[21] Air Namibia was re-absorbed into the Namibian government after an injection of US$3,700,000 (equivalent to $5,687,485 in 2018) in 1998, following the precarious cash position it was led into by TransNamib.[22]LTU, Germany's second largest airline at the time, entered into a codeshare agreement with Air Namibia in February 1998.[23] Air Namibia acquired a new Boeing 747-400 Combi in April 1999 (1999-04) with financial aid from the U.S. Export Import Bank.[24] Named Welwitschia, the aircraft was handed over by the manufacturer in October that year.[25] The new machine came to replace the carrier's Boeing 747SP,[26] and was retired in 2004.[27] That year, the carrier started flying the McDonnell Douglas MD-11.[28]

By April 2000 (2000-04), the airline's employees numbered 418. At this time, Air Namibia operated a Boeing 727-100, two Boeing 737-200 Advanced, one Boeing 747-400 Combi and three Raytheon Beech 1900Cs that served Cape Town, Frankfurt, Johannesburg, London, Luanda, Luderitz, Lusaka, Maun, Mokuti Lodge, Mpacha, Ondangwa, Oranjemund, Swakopmund, Victoria Falls, Walvis Bay and Windhoek.[29] That year, the airline joined the African Airlines Association.[30]


The first of three Embraer ERJ 135s the airline leased from Régional Compagnie Aérienne Européenne, intended to replace the Beechcraft 1900 fleet,[31] was received in February 2011 (2011-02);[32] likewise, the first of two leased Airbus A319-100s entered the fleet in October the same year.[27] Intended as a replacement for the Boeing 737 fleet,[27] the company ordered another two Airbus A319s in February 2012 (2012-02), in a deal worth US$90 million;[33][34] in July the same year, the carrier signed an agreement for the lease of two Airbus A330-200s, aimed at replacing the Airbus A340-300s.[35] Of the last two A319s ordered, the first one was incorporated into the fleet in early January 2013 (2013-01).[36] In September 2013 (2013-09),[37] Air Namibia took delivery of its first Airbus A330-200.[38][39]


In April 2017 (2017-04), the airline was granted permission to fly to the United States by the US Department of Transportation. In March the airline completed a re-certification application by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (an audit process which was initiated in 2013), enabling the airline to fly to any EU member state.[40]

In recent developments regarding the Embraer ERJ-135-fleet, Westair Aviation, a 100% Namibian-owned company, acquired the four aircraft from the previous owner, Air France. According to the new owners, Westair will enable the upgrade and renewal of the current domestic and regional fleet.[48] In August 2017 the airline confirmed that it was committed to purchasing 2 new Embraer ERJ-135 and 4 new Embraer ERJ-145 jets, for delivery 2018.[49][50][51]
