History

The airline started operations in 2006 with one EMBRAER 110-P1 "Bandeirante" flying from Curacao. The first flight was to the neighboring island of Aruba. Soon after the daily scheduled flights to Aruba, Insel Air started with flights to the other neighboring island of Bonaire. On December 9, 2006, Insel Air announced the successful legal and financial closure of the Regional Airlift for the Island of Curacao. This regional airlift will be served with a MD-83.
