RAK Airways is the future national airline of Ras Al Khaimah, one of the four in United Arab Emirates. The airline is planning to launch operations early in 2007 with two Boeing 757-200 aircrafts. [1]
The airline is also in talks with Indian Low-cost Carrier SpiceJet for a possible interline agreement between them. RAK airways eventually plans to fly to destinations in Iran also, in very near future.
The airline may start charter and scheduled services from its Ras al Khaimah base as early as April 2007 using a Boeing 737-300 and a Boeing 757-200 aircraft [2]
