Following the collapse of the Orizonia Corporation, Orbest was bought by the Barceló Group, among with more Orbest Orizonia Airlines planes.[1] The airline is currently changing it's name to Evelop Airlines in order to follow the Barceló Group choice not to keep with the airline name chosen before by Orizonia. As a result, all the Orbest fleet will go to Evelop's.
