History

Eswatini Airlink was formed as a joint venture company between the Swaziland Government (60%) and Airlink (40%) to take over operations from Royal Swazi National Airways Corporation (RSNAC), the previous flag carrier of Eswatini. Swaziland Airlink started operations in July 1999 with a leased Fokker F28 aircraft from RSNAC linking Matsapha Airport with Johannesburg and Dar-es-Salaam. In June 2000, the Fokker F28 was replaced with a BAe Jetstream 41 aircraft. Swaziland Airlink became Eswatini Airlink after the country's name was changed. The company slogan is Freedom to connect.

gollark: Anyway, because I *don't* want the reactor to melt down and kill everyone, I'm using a fuel which allows me to make relatively efficient and heat-negative stuff.
gollark: Yep.
gollark: Yes, this is that design.
gollark: No active cooling, either.
gollark: Try being that efficient on a stupidly high-heat fuel.
