The airline has been growing rapidly in recent years and is the largest airline in Zambia by routes served and fleet size.

History

Proflight Air Services was founded in 1991 by pilot Tony Irwin, formerly of Zambia Airways.[3] On 30 June 2009 the airline was authorized by the Zambia Competition Commission to form an alliance with Zambezi Airlines.[4] The airline was officially rebranded as Proflight Zambia in 2010.

In March 2013 Proflight took delivery of its first jet aircraft, a Boeing 737-200, and later in 2013 began regional scheduled service to Lilongwe and Dar es Salaam.[3][5] although the Boeing was returned to the lessor, Star Air Cargo, in 2014.
