The Libyan newcomer Medsky already has two Airbus A320s in its fleet. The current M-ABNR was brought to the Aviation Cosmetics Malta hangar on February 18, 2022 and repainted in Medsky colours.

The Airbus A320 will be flown by the Maltese charter company Malta MedAir on behalf of the Libyan paper airline. Medsky intends to offer a twice-weekly flight between Malta and Misurata, with the airline planning to start operations at the end of March 2022.

Medsky Airways' Chairman is Abubaker Elfortia, who has extensive business interests. With 5A-registered aircraft still blacklisted, the Malta connection will allow MedAir to fly direct from Misurata to continental Europe without the need for stopovers in Istanbul, Cairo or Tunisia.
