Sudan’s aviation authorities grounded Sudan Airways on Monday citing administrative failures such as not updating operations manuals. The airline did however get a last minute reprieve on the condition that it will be subjected to another audit in two weeks.

Sudan Airways has reportedly pulled out of the Juba - Entebbe route.

The government of Sudan has sold off parts of the national airline to Kuwait’s Aref Investment Group which will hold 49%, and Sudan based Al-Fiha company which in turn will hold 21% of the company. The government will retain the remaining 30%.

Sudan Airways will start service between Khartoum, Sudan and Muscat, Oman to be operated between May 31 and August 31 on a triangle route with Al Ain, UAE. The flight will operate on Thursdays using AB3 aircraft.
