History
Eswatini Airlink was formed as a joint venture company between the Swaziland Government (60%) and Airlink (40%) to take over operations from Royal Swazi National Airways Corporation (RSNAC), the previous flag carrier of Eswatini. Swaziland Airlink started operations in July 1999 with a leased Fokker F28 aircraft from RSNAC linking Matsapha Airport with Johannesburg and Dar-es-Salaam.[citation needed]
In June 2000, the Fokker F28 was replaced with a BAe Jetstream 41 aircraft. Swaziland Airlink became Eswatini Airlink after the country's name was changed.[citation needed]
The airline ceased operations on June 1, 2022.[2][5]

Fleet
Eswatini Airlink did not maintain a dedicated fleet at the time of closure. Flights were operated under Airlink's AOC as part of the Airlink schedule using Embraer ERJ-135 or Embraer ERJ-140 aircraft.[7] Eswatini Airlink previously operated the BAe Jetstream 41, Fokker F28, and Embraer ERJ-135 under their own AOC.[citation needed]
