Ranzanian Airways S.P. is the virtual flag carrier of Kingdom of Ranzania. Ranzanian Airways has its main hub at LRBV Brașov-Ghimbav Airport, with a secondary hub at LRBS Băneasa International Airport. It is currently the only airline of Ranzania and it operates internationally and intermicronationally. Ranzanian Airways carries the Kingdom of Ranzania's culture and values to international destinations. The airline often showcases Ranzanian traditions, art, and cuisine to promote the nation's heritage abroad.
History
Ranzanian Airways, formerly known as RANZAIR was founded in August of 2022 with the initiative of creating a national airline that would not only cater to the domestic and international travel needs of the Kingdom of Ranzania but also participate in the wider micronational community. The effort of building a fleet started by ordering one Airbus A320 aircraft. Sadly, due to limited funds of the Kingdom at the time, RANZAIR was set back and postponed.
Overcoming financial obstacles and other hurdles, Ranzanian Airways persevered, ultimately rebranding itself to better represent its national identity. The emergence of Ranzanian Airways signified a fresh start and a renewed commitment to its mission. Despite the initial setbacks, the airline's dedication to excellence and its desire to connect Ranzania with the wider world remained stronger than ever. Utilizing national funds, the airline leased an Embraer Phenom 100 aircraft and opened multiple European destinations.
