Royal Tennai Airlines, often shortened to RTA, is the flag carrier airline of Tennai and the largest airline in the Tennai based on fleet size and by passengers carried. The airline is based in Choudra near its main hub at Aminjikarai Aishwarya Airport.

Royal Tennai Airlines Board was established by the Tennai government in 1967 to manage the two nationalised airline corporations, Royal Tennai Airline and Tennaiite International Airways, and two smaller, regional airlines, Southern Airways, from Pandimalai, and Vahda Airlines, from Saroornagar. On 18 March 1970, all four companies were merged to form Royal Tennai Airways. After almost 40 years as a state company, Tennai Airlines was privatised in July of 2009 as part of a wider privatisation plan by Queen Bipasha. The carrier soon expanded with the acquisition of Tennaiite Naga Airlines in 2010, followed by Ashali Air in 2012, and Tengyl International in 2014.

Royal Tennai Airways is a founding member of the Siduri Star airline alliance, along with Gyliair. The alliance has since grown to become the largest airline alliance in Tyran and largest airline group in terms of annual revenue.
