The Government has revealed the names of 10 airlines from eight countries that are banned from flying in UK airspace – but will not be publishing the identity of carriers that are banned from other countries. As reported, the subject of blacklisted carriers has been prominent since the Flash Air crash last week, which killed 148 people when the carrier’s jet went down in the Red Sea off Egypt. The transport minister Tony McNulty yesterday revealed in Parliament that eight airlines are not allowed to use British airspace. They are: Star Air and Air Universal, from Sierra Leone; Central Air Express, from the Congo; Albanian Airlines; Cameroon Airlines; RAF-AVIA of Latvia; Enimex, of Estonia; Air Bosnia; Inter Trans Air, of Bulgaria; and Air Memphis, of Egypt. However, according to The Independent newspaper, the Government has not revealed the names of two carriers that are currently banned in other European countries but are believed to be operating in Britain.
