Air Burundi was the state-owned national airline of Burundi which operated from 1971 to 2009.

At its peak, the airline operated scheduled regional passenger services to Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda with its main base at Bujumbura International Airport, and headquarters in Bujumbura.

After many years of inactivity, the government started the process of reviving it. Its successor, Burundi Airlines, was formally established on 4 February 2021.
