BAR Aviation was established in Uganda in 2008. It began with pilot training, air charter services and aircraft maintenance services. The airline began scheduled flight services in Uganda on 1 February 2022.[8][9] BAR Aviation Uganda utilizes the AeroCRS Cloud Reservation System.[10]

The airline expects to participate in the revival of the tourism sector, following devastation by the COVID-19 pandemic.[11] In addition, with the ongoing expansion of the country's petrochemical industry, a number of aircraft acquisitions are targeted towards medical evacuation activities.[12]
