History
NICA was founded in 1992 from the remains of Aeronica and commenced operations from Managua to Miami. In 1994, the Grupo TACA acquired 49% of NICA and reorganized the airline without government intervention.
In 2004, the airline ceased operations and merged with TACA Airlines. Its domestic flight duties were given to Nicaragua's domestic flag carrier, La Costeña, who also joined the TACA Regional alliance. La Costeña however, differs from NICA because it still operates under its company name.
