Founded
2006
Headquarters
Willemstad, Curaçao
Insel Air was a Caribbean regional airline headquartered in Willemstad, Curaçao, operating scheduled and charter passenger services across the Dutch Caribbean islands and to destinations throughout the wider Caribbean and South America. Founded in 2006, the carrier quickly established itself as a key connector between islands such as Curaçao, Aruba, Bonaire, Sint Maarten, and various Venezuelan and Colombian cities. The airline operated a fleet of turboprop and jet aircraft, serving a network that filled an important gap left by the decline of larger legacy carriers in the region. At its peak, Insel Air was one of the most prominent airlines in the Dutch Caribbean, operating under the IATA code 7I. Insel Air faced severe financial difficulties and operational disruptions in the mid-2010s, including aircraft groundings and route suspensions. By 2019, the airline had effectively ceased operations, leaving a significant void in regional Caribbean connectivity.
