history
The airline was active from 1996 to 1998.
Air Dabia had a fleet of three aircraft. An important line of business was the transport of African pilgrims during the Hajj .
It was operated by the alleged fraudster Foutanga Babani Sissoko , whose conspicuous personal fortune had unclear origins. During the short period of operation, there were allegations by numerous employees of long hours, inadequate rest periods for the crews (who were expected to sleep on the planes between flights) and wage differences. In 2018, Sissoko allegedly became involved in bank fraud.
