The airline was established in December 2005 and planned to start serving destinations in Syria, as well as international routes to Jordan, Turkey and Egypt in mid-2006. The project may have been abandoned due to the unstable political situation in the area.[1] It was initially to operate a pair of 50 to 70-seat aircraft from Damascus and Beirut. Syrian Air and Middle East Airlines would jointly own 50% of Phoenician Express, and the other half would be owned by private investors |
