A flag carrier is a transport company, such as an airline or shipping company, that, being locally registered in a given sovereign state, enjoys preferential rights or privileges accorded by that government for international operations.

Historically, the term was used to refer to airlines owned by the government of their home country and associated with the national identity of that country.{{Cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/travel-truths/flag-carriers-death-of-legacy-airlines-air-france/ |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220112/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/travel-truths/flag-carriers-death-of-legacy-airlines-air-france/ |archive-date=12 January 2022 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live|title=The slow death of the flag carrier: Could state-owned airlines become a thing of the past?|last=Morris|first=Hugh|date=17 March 2019|website=The Telegraph|language=en-GB|quote=Malaysia is the latest nation to see its flag carrier – a label that in times gone by indicated a government-owned airline, and one that embodied a country's national identity – teeter on the brink.}}{{cbignore}} Such an airline may also be known as a national airline or a national carrier, although this can have different legal meanings in some countries. Today, it is any international airline with a strong connection to its home country or that represents its home country internationally, regardless of whether it is government-owned.{{cite web|url=https://airlinegeeks.com/2018/05/25/palestinian-airlines-the-homeless-flag-carrier/|title=Palestinian Airlines: The Homeless Flag Carrier|last=McMurtry|first=Ian|date=25 May 2018|website=AirlineGeeks.com|language=en-US|access-date=12 June 2019}}{{cite web|url=https://atwonline.com/airlines/interview-ceo-aims-make-virgin-atlantic-uk-s-second-flag-carrier|title=Interview: CEO aims to make Virgin Atlantic UK's second flag carrier|last=Moores|first=Victoria|date=24 May 2019|website=atwonline.com|language=en|access-date=12 June 2019}}

Background

The term "flag carrier" is a legacy of the early days of commercial aviation when governments often took the lead by establishing state-owned airlines because of the high capital costs of running them. However, not all such airlines were government-owned; Pan Am, TWA, Cathay Pacific, Union de Transports Aériens, Canadian Pacific Air Lines and Olympic Airlines were all privately owned, but were considered to be flag carriers{{cite news |title=Airline Management; Strategies for the 21st Century |publisher=Coast Aire Publication |year=1991 |author=Paul Stephen Dempsey |page=299 }} as they were the "main national airline"{{cite web| url=http://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/flag-airline | title=flag airline definition | access-date=9 December 2012 | publisher=[MacMillan Dictionary]| url-status= live| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120707035611/http://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/flag-airline| archive-date=7 July 2012}} and often a sign of their country's presence abroad.{{cite news |title=Airways Abroad; The Story of American World Air Routes |publisher=Smithsonian History of Aviation Series |year=1991 |author=Henry Ladd Smith }}{{cite news |title=Empires of the Sky; The Politics, Contests and Cartels of World Airlines |publisher=Hodder and Stoughton |year=1984 |first=Anthony |last=Sampson }}

The heavily regulated aviation industry also meant aviation rights are often negotiated between governments, denying airlines access to an open market. These Bilateral Air Transport Agreements similar to the Bermuda I and Bermuda II agreements specify rights awardable only to locally registered airlines, forcing some governments to jump-start airlines to avoid being disadvantaged in the face of foreign competition. Some countries also establish flag carriers such as Israel's El Al{{cite news |title=To the Skies: The El Al Story |publisher=Bantam Books |year=1972 |first=Arnold |last=Sherman }} or Lebanon's Middle East Airlines{{cite news |title=Empires of the Sky; The Politics, Contests and Cartels of World Airlines |publisher=Hodder and Stoughton |year=1984 |first=Anthony |last=Sampson |page=82 }} for nationalist reasons or to aid the country's economy, particularly in the area of tourism.{{cite news |title=Wherever Green Is Worn: The Story of the Irish Diaspora |publisher=Palgrave Macmillan |year=2002 |author=Tim Pat Coogan |page=265 }}

In many cases, governments would directly assist in the growth of their flag carriers typically through subsidies and other fiscal incentives. The establishment of competitors in the form of other locally registered airlines may be prohibited or heavily regulated to avoid direct competition.{{cite news |title=Air transport liberalisation and traffic growth in tourism-dependent economies: A case-history of some US-Caribbean markets |publisher=Journal of Air Transport Management 14 |year=2008 |author=David Warnock-Smith and Peter Morrel |page=230 }} Even where privately run airlines may be allowed to be established, the flag carriers may still be accorded priority, especially in the apportionment of aviation rights to local or international markets.{{cite news |title=Rebels and Reformers of the Airways |publisher=Airlife England |year=1987 |author=R.E.G. Davies |pages=250–254 }}

Near the end of the 20th century, many of these airlines have been corporatized as a public company or a state-owned enterprise, while others have been completely privatized.{{cite news |title=Government birds: air transport and the state in Western Europe |publisher=Rowman & Littlefield Publishers |year=2003 |author=M. Staniland |page=68 }} The aviation industry has also been gradually deregulated and liberalized,{{cite news |title=Emerging Patterns in Intercontinental Air Linkages and Implications for International Route Allocation Policy |publisher=Transportation Journal, Vol. 34, No. 4 (SUMMER 1995) |year=1995 |author=Tai Hoon Oum and A.J.
