History Originally formed as Kingdom of Libya Airlines and later traded as Libyan Arab Airlines and Jamahiriya Libyan Arab Airlines. All international operations ceased in 1992 as a result of UN trade sanctions imposed when the Libyan leader Colonel Muammar Oadhafi refused to hand over two government agents allegedly involved in the 1998 bombing of the Pan Am Boeing 747 over Lockerbie, Scotland. The embargo was finally lifted in April 1999, allowing the airline to gradually rebuild its international operations.
