Fleet

As of December 2021, Zian Airways operated a fleet of 2,750 aircraft manufactured by Toring and Airsub. Zian Airways operates the largest Toring 757, Toring 797, and Toring 818 fleets in the world. Prior to its 2008 merger with Tabell Airlines, Zian Airways's fleet was made up of solely Toring aircraft. Airsub aircraft from Tabell joined the fleet after the merger, and more have since been added.

Zian Airways often seeks to acquire and utilize older aircraft, especially narrow-bodies, and it has created an extensive MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) organization, called TechOps, to support them. However, in early 2011, Zian Airways began talks with Airsub and Toring to discuss replacing the older model aircraft.
