Established in 1961 as a transnational carrier for francophone West and Central Africa, Air Afrique was headquartered in Abidjan and served a broad international network. Its story spans early DC-4 operations, the arrival of Boeing 707s in 1962, later DC-8 and DC-10 service, and decades of shared regional identity. A fitting piece for airline collectors and travel-history fans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAir Afrique was a Pan-African airline headquartered in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, created as the official transnational carrier for francophone West and Central Africa. Conceived in February 1960 as a joint subsidiary of Air France and Union Aéromaritime de Transport, it was formally founded under the Treaty of Yaoundé on 28 March 1961. Eleven newly independent former French colonies supplied most of the original capital, while Air France and UAT each held 17 percent. Operations began on 1 August 1961 with leased DC-4 aircraft, and long-haul service followed that October. Boeing 707s entered intercontinental service in January 1962, followed by DC-8s, Caravelles, DC-10s, Airbus aircraft and Boeing types. UAT merged with TAI to form UTA in 1963; Air France later became UTA's controlling shareholder in 1990. Air Afrique served African, European and North American destinations, but financial difficulties deepened from the 1980s. It ceased operations in January 2002 and was declared bankrupt on 7 February 2002. Air France took over most of its routes, while proposed revival plans did not materialise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 500;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eRegular Can\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 500;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eSlim Can\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eHeight, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e4.30\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e6.00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eDiameter, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e3.50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e3.50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Durable 100% polyester exterior with edge-to-edge vibrant print\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Soft 100% foam liner for firm grip and insulation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Lightweight and slim — fits regular and slim cans\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Outside white polyester with black foam interior for contrast\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Available sizes: Regular (3.5\" x 4.3\") and Slim (3.5\" x 6'\")\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Wipe with a damp cloth, air dry or use a soft, non-abrasive cloth\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEU representative\u003c\/strong\u003e: HONSON VENTURES LIMITED, gpsr@honsonventures.com, 3, Gnaftis House flat 102, Limassol, Mesa Geitonia, 4003, CY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct information\u003c\/strong\u003e: Generic brand, 2 year warranty in EU and Northern Ireland as per Directive 1999\/44\/EC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wipe with a damp cloth, air dry or use a soft, non-abrasive cloth\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Printify","offers":[{"title":"Regular Can","offer_id":54539432853788,"sku":"26068042414711095756","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Slim Can","offer_id":54539432886556,"sku":"15245744319038686640","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/2517\/5580\/files\/5244760344256019051_2048.jpg?v=1788812440","url":"https:\/\/ghostcorpapparel.com\/products\/air-afrique-can-cooler","provider":"Ghost Corp Apparel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
