Southern Star Airlines was a short-lived South Sudanese domestic airline based in Juba, the capital and largest city of South Sudan. Southern Star Airlines was founded since the independence of the country on 9 July 2011. The airline owned only one aircraft, which was one de Havilland Canada DHC-8-100. Southern Star Airlines' inaugural flight took place on 20 August 2011. However, after only two months of "erratic operations", the airline closed, shut down all operations, and gave away its one and only aircraft to the Kenyan-based airline ALS.
