[edit] History
Insel Air is a private initiative of various businesses and financial institutions who recognized the need and importance for a Curacao based and owned airline to provide reliable quality sevice to regional destinations for a reasonable price.

Soon after the daily scheduled flights to Aruba, Insel Air started with flights to the other neigboring island of Bonaire. On December 9, 2006, Insel Air announced the succesful legal and financial closure of the Regional Airlift for the Island of Curacao. This regional airlift will be served with a MD-83, for which aircraft Insel Air has trained qualified personnel, ready to fly.
