August 12: Afriqiyah Airways took delivery of its first Airbus A330-200 aircraft to serve long-haul operations on routes from Tripoli to Africa and Europe.
Afriqiyah Airways was formed in 2001 and currently has a fleet of two A319s and five A320s. It ordered three A330s in 2006, six A350-800s in 2007 and will take delivery of a further ten A320 family aircraft in the coming years.
