BHOJA AIR HISTORY

OUR HISTORY

On 7th November 1993, a historic moment emerged in the Aviation history when Bhoja Air, an airline with a vision of the future operated its inaugural flight between Karachi, Lahore and Quetta, with a dry lease Boeing 737-200 aircraft and registered its name as the first private airline in Pakistan to operate with a Western manufactured aircraft.

Bhoja Air, a privately owned airline with a reputation for reliability, service and punctuality gets its heritage and pedigree from the Bhoja Group of Companies. Bhoja Air has its head office at Shahrah–e-Liaquat and corporate Offices at KDA society, Karachi one of the prime locations in the heart of the gateway of Southeast Asia, The Cosmopolitan City of Karachi.

1996, was another year of celebration for Bhoja Air, as it acquired the globally acclaimed handling agent group called ‘OGDENS’ with complete Ground handling equipment at Karachi. This equipment is capable of handling up to B 747 aircraft.

In the same year another Sister Company, Pakistan Aviators and Aviation located at Lahore International airport was purchased along with a motel, which is very close to the airport.

January 24 1998, was another festive day for the company when it commenced its first International flight from Karachi to Dubai. Bhoja Air currently operates flights to U.A.E from all major cities of Pakistan besides having a solid domestic network.
