Fleet
CEIBA Intercontinental (IATA: C2, ICAO: CEL) is Equatorial Guinea's primary airline, founded in May 2007. The carrier is headquartered at Malabo International Airport, which serves as its main hub for operations across West-Central Africa and selected European routes.
The airline operates both regional domestic services and international flights, including a route to Madrid, Spain operated under a wet-lease agreement with Wamos Air. CEIBA Intercontinental is not part of any global airline alliance, positioning itself as an independent carrier serving Equatorial Guinea's aviation market.
The fleet combines regional turboprop aircraft (ATR 42 and ATR 72) for shorter distances with widebody jets (Boeing 737, 767, and 777) for longer international routes. This mix enables the airline to serve both regional connections and intercontinental travel demands, though passengers should be aware that all airlines registered in Equatorial Guinea have been included on the EU air safety ban list as of 2024.
