This Khalifa Airways passport cover is made for travelers who enjoy carrying aviation history with them. It pays tribute to the Algiers-based airline that operated between 1999 and 2003, connecting a broad domestic Algerian network with international links in Africa, Europe and the Middle East. The design is a subtle nod to a brief but recognizable airline era, ideal for collectors, frequent travelers and admirers of Algerian transport history.
Khalifa Airways was an Algerian passenger and cargo airline based in Algiers. Founded by Rafik Khalifa in June 1999, it received government authorisation to launch services in August 1999 and began operations that same month. Its network linked destinations within Algeria with international services in Africa, Europe and the Middle East. Late in 1999, the airline leased a Boeing 737-400 from Pegasus Airlines. In 2001, Khalifa Airways placed orders for three Airbus A340-300 aircraft, five A330-200 aircraft and ten A320 aircraft, with deliveries scheduled for 2004. The carrier also sponsored Olympique de Marseille from 2001 to 2003. Its operating life ended in 2003: a French court liquidated the airline on 10 July after it failed to make a 5 million euro payment to creditors. The company is remembered as a short-lived airline from Algeria’s expanding late-1990s aviation scene, with a route network spanning domestic Algerian cities and selected European destinations.
