Air Burkina is an airline headquartered in the Air Burkina Storey Building in Ouagadougou. It is the national airline, operating scheduled services to one domestic destination (Bobo-Dioulasso), as well as regional services to Togo, Benin, Mali, Niger, Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana. Its main base is Ouagadougou Airport.
The airline was established on 17 March 1967 under the name Air Volta. It was originally part owned by the Burkinabé government, part by Air France and part privately held. After the demise of Air Afrique, the state of Burkina Faso on 21 February 2001 privatised Air Burkina, transferring 56% of the shares to the AKFED / IPS consortium.
