The story

At that time, Elsayed Saber and his family launched AMC Airlines after obtaining a license to operate worldwide passenger charter operations. It is wholly owned by Saber and his family, and has 498 employees. The airline was initially named AMC Aviation before becoming 'AMC Airlines' in 2005
