Fleet

Yangon Airways (IATA: YH, ICAO: FSC) is Myanmar's regional carrier, established in 1996 and headquartered at Yangon International Airport. The airline has built its reputation on reliable regional connectivity, serving routes across Myanmar and neighboring Southeast Asian countries with a focus on underserved markets and secondary cities.

The carrier's network emphasizes domestic trunk routes and regional links that connect Myanmar's major cities and tourism destinations. As a regional specialist, Yangon Airways provides essential air transport infrastructure for both business and leisure travelers, leveraging its base at Yangon-Myanmar's largest city and primary aviation hub-to coordinate operations and passenger connections.

Yangon Airways operates a focused fleet of ATR 72 turboprop aircraft, a proven workhorse for regional aviation. These twin-engine turboprops are ideally suited for the airline's route profile: they offer operational efficiency on shorter routes, favorable economics on lower-density services, and good performance from regional airfields with less demanding infrastructure requirements. This fleet strategy reflects the airline's positioning as a practical, cost-conscious operator serving Myanmar's evolving aviation market.
