In 1992, an Antonov An-12 was purchased. In 2000, Khors Air replaced its ageing fleet of Soviet aircraft with American-built McDonnell Douglas DC-9-51 aircraft and, from 2004, McDonnell Douglas MD-82. In 2005, a Kyiv to Dubai, Malé and Jakarta service was started using a Boeing 757-200ER aircraft but soon had to be halted. In 2017, the United States proposed sanctions against Khors Air due to them leasing out aircraft to airlines in Iran. As of 2022, the airline ceased all operations during war.
