The recently registered Mongolian Airline Group LLC plans to begin its operations in 2012. The firm will be the third to offer domestic flights.

The company will operate from Chinggis Khaan International Airport and operate domestic flights to Dalanzadgad in the south, Khovd in the West, Moron in the North, Choibalsan in the East, and Bayankhongor and Arvaikheer in the center. A first trial domestic flight of the newly registered company took off on 18 November as a charter flight to Bayankhongor. In the past few years only two airlines, Eznis and Aero-Mongolia operated domestic flights. Competition between the three companies has begun already. The company offered a one-time discount of MNT 100,000 for a one-way trip to Choibalsan, to which Eznis responded with its own discount of MNT 120,600 for one-way tickets. Normally a ticket to Choibalson costs at least MNT 210,000.  In 2012 the airline will offer domestic flights using four aircrafts.

The new registration of Mongolian Airlines is a revival of a similar company with the same name established in 1956, which flew an Antonov AN-2 aircraft. The original Mongolian Airlines company has changed forms and ownership several times, involving separation from MIAT in 1992. Bodi Group, a Mongolian business conglomerate, is responsible for the company's reorganization and owns the company outright.

The first Fokker-50 aircraft with its new color scheme arrived in November and will be named Hunnu (marked on the aircraft's nose) to commemorate the 2,200th anniversary of the founding of the Hunnu state.
