Myanmar National Airlines is a government airline and national flag carrier of Myanmar under the control of the military junta by default. Under various branding, the airline has been in business for over 65 years, first as Union of Burma Airways and later as MNA.

The airline flies to 27 domestic points and recently reintroduced a three-weekly service to Chiang Mai from its home base in Yangon.

It flies twice daily to Bangkok and daily to Singapore. Before the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown in 2020 and the subsequent military coup in February 2021, it also served Hong Kong.
