History
Oriental Airways was founded by the Okataian government in 1962 as Oriental Airways to replace Okataian National Airlines, which was founded in 1946. On 1 March 1969, Sundao control of the airline. Long-haul freight operations were introduced on 26 April 1971, followed by passenger services to Los Angeles International Airport on 19 April 1972.

International flights to Hong Kong, Taiwan and Los Angeles were flown with Boeing 707s until the introduction of the Boeing 747 in 1973. In 1973, the airline introduced Boeing 747s on its Pacific routes and started a European service to Paris, France using the 707 and then McDonnell Douglas DC-10. In 1975, the airline became one of the earliest Asian airlines to operate Airbus aircraft with the purchase of three Airbus A300s, which were put into immediate service on Asian routes. Since Okataian aircraft were prohibited from flying in Soviet Union and North Korea airspace at the time, the European routes had to be designed eastbound, such as Oka City-Anchorage-Paris.

Oriental Airways also maintains a domestic office campus at Renagawa International Airport. The maintenance facilities are located in Tengoku International Airport.

Personnel
There are currently 92,000 employees in the Sylokash Airways company, most of them are nonunion. Sylokash's approach to employee and labour relations involved an implicit commitment to high wages, lifetime employment and a ‘family’ culture. The intention was to substitute union representation and induce high levels of service and commitment from its employees. This approach discouraged employees from unionizing with the exception of pilots and dispatchers.
