Raise a glass to the story of Pamir Airways, the Kabul-based carrier whose name evokes the Pamir Mountains, known as the roof of the world. After receiving its Air Operator’s Certificate in 1994, the airline began flying in 1995 with Boeing 707 and Antonov An-12 aircraft. This pint glass brings a distinctive chapter of Afghan aviation history to gatherings, home bars, and collections celebrating airline identity and regional travel.
Pamir Airways was a privately owned airline headquartered in Kabul, Afghanistan, and operated scheduled passenger flights from Kabul International Airport. Its name refers to the Pamir Mountains and translates as “roof of the world.” Before the Taliban takeover, it became Afghanistan’s first private airline, receiving an Air Operator’s Certificate in 1994 from the authorities then responsible for civil aviation in the Islamic State of Afghanistan. Flight operations began in 1995 with one Boeing 707-300 and two Antonov An-12 aircraft. In April 2008, a group of Afghan businessmen led by Sherkhan Farnood took over the airline; Farnood, then president of the Afghanistan Chamber of Commerce & Industries and a former Kabul Bank chairman, became airline chairman. Pamir received a $98 million loan from Kabul Bank. An effort to reorganize the airline’s assets, including its aging grounded aircraft, could not recover the funds through sales. On 19 March 2011, its license was withdrawn, officially because of its poor safety record. During the Hajj season, the airline carried Afghan pilgrims to Saudi Arabia, including 9,000 in 2004 and 15,000 in 2005. On 17 May 2010, Flight 112 crashed at Salang Pass while traveling from Kunduz to Kabul; all 39 passengers and five crew members died.

A sturdy 16oz pint glass that brings a little roadhouse spirit to everyday pours. The clear tempered glass showcases whatever you fill it with — amber beer, cold brew, or fresh juice — while a bold vintage-inspired script wraps the side for a subtle, nostalgic touch. It feels solid in the hand, resists everyday wear, and pairs easily with bar carts, kitchen counters, or a laid-back backyard table. Wash gently by hand to keep the lettering sharp and the glass crystal-clear. Built from tempered materials and assembled in the USA, this glass fits into evenings spent swapping stories, weekend morning routines, or those slow, quiet moments when a simple drink matters.
