History


The airline was founded in 2009. Its first flights were to Porlamar and within months it commenced a route to and from Maracaibo.[2] It was a charter flight company, until it managed to consolidate itself over the years.

On November 6, 2017, the Chilean airline Latin American Wings terminated the contract with Estelar for non-payment, which caused passengers on the Santiago, Chile route to be stranded for three days at the airport.[3]

In December 2017, Estelar Latinoamerica announced its first intercontinental route from Caracas to Madrid, Spain. Therefore, it expanded its narrow-body fleet with an Airbus A340-300 on lease from Hi Fly Malta.[4] The route to Madrid was operated with three weekly frequencies, replacing the old route operated by the flag carrier, Conviasa. It also flew the A340 to Buenos Aires, with three frequencies a week.

Later, the airline leased an Airbus A380-800 from Hi Fly Malta because the A340 it was leasing needed repairs, making Estelar the first Americas airline in history to operate the aircraft type.[5]
