Malaysia's first Islamic-compliant airline, Rayani Air, has been barred from flying for breaching regulations.
The Department of Civil Aviation (DCA) said it was revoking the airline's certification because of concerns over its safety audit and administration.
Rayani Air launched last December offering only halal food, no alcohol and crew wearing modest clothing.
It has two Boeing 737-400 planes in its fleet, each able to carry about 180 passengers, eight pilots and 50 crew.

I think the entire airline may have had 8 pilots and 50 crew members...

Where do you think they got the inspiration for that name from?

The first and last parts of the names of the Indian founder and his wife.

There was still a 734 parked in KUL T1 last Thursday, beside the other 747 relics that nobody owned.

So a wing and a prayer hasn't saved them.
