Orca Air was a regional airline based in Cairo in Egypt which also provided air taxi and charter services. It was established in February 1996 and is a member of the European Regions Airline Association (ERA). It also provides air ambulance services. Under the umbrella of the "Oyoun" Tourism Group, Orca has been completely restructured from inside out, and will shortly re-commence operations on a completely new basis, with a fleet of Saab 340 aircraft.{{Citation needed|date=March 2007}}

Short History

Orca Air was first founded in 1996 by Diaa El-Gabbani and Osama Farid and was the first air taxi service in the Middle East. But due to unexpected events such as the death of El-Gabbani in an air crash in 2000, then a slump in the tourism industry after September 11, 2001 and inadequate management, Orca Air's operations were suspended in 2003.[1]
