History
Turkmenistan Airlines was founded in 1992.
Since 2001, the airline has been phasing out its aging Soviet-era fleet to make way for a modern fleet of Boeing 717's, which are extensively used for service on domestic routes. Turkmenistan was the first of the former Soviet republics to purchase aircraft from Boeing since 1992.
