Sharjah Airport Authority (SAA) announced welcoming the first flight of ‘Fly Oya’ flights, from Tripoli,
Libya, to Sharjah Airport during 2024. This is in line with the Authority's ambitious efforts to expand the

operations. These strategic advancements were aimed at satisfying increasing passenger demands
