[edit] History
The airline was established in 1968 and started operations in 1991 with small aircraft for private transport. In 1992 it entered the domestic scheduled market with a leased Douglas DC-9-30. Aserca's operations were centred around Valencia, but it managed to develop Caracas as a hub after 1994 which made it experience a significant growth in its market share, expanding its network to Bogotá, Lima and Miami via Aruba. Between 1998 and 2000 Aserca had a controlling interest in Air Aruba. The airline is owned by Migdalia García (95%) and Simeón García (5%)[1].
