History
The airline was founded in 2015 by businessman Jorge Soriano and two partners with plans to start operations by 2016 from Andorra–La Seu d'Urgell Airport which opened in 2010. Its aim is to connect Andorra with major Spanish and European destinations as there were no scheduled flight connections aside from Heliport operations. This was delayed by several years due to the bankruptcy of the investment fund in charge of the funding of the company.[2]
In 2020, the company announced plans to inaugurate flights to Madrid and Palma de Mallorca using ATR turboprops. Andorra Airlines since has made the first official charter flight to Madrid on 20 April 2021.[2]
