Tiara Air Aruba gets first 737-300

Tiara Air Aruba has taken delivery of its first Boeing 737-300. The addition of “The Tiara Air Arawak” to the fleet marks the beginning of a new phase of regional expansion for the airline. Carrier CEO Alejandro Muyale commented: “We are thrilled to welcome our newest and largest aircraft into the Tiara fleet. The increase in capacity provided by the 141-seat 737-300 gives us the leverage we need to enter new markets where travel to Aruba is in demand.” Currently, Tiara Air Aruba uses Short 360 aircraft with a capacity of 30 seats on all flights. With the arrival of its new aircraft, Tiara Air Aruba will seek to expand its existing route structure to include new destinations of interest to the island’s tourism growth including more destinations in Venezuela, Colombia, the Caribbean and the US. Right now, Tiara Air Aruba operates service between Aruba and Curacao, Bonaire, Riohacha (Colombia), and Maracaibo and Punto Fijo (Venezuela). The carrier has also negotiated with Global GDS (Global Distribution Systems) Amadeus, Sabre and Travelport to make its flights available worldwide. Tiara Air is also member of IATA Bank Settlement Plans in Venezuela, Colombia and the Eastern Caribbean as well as ARC (Airline Reporting of America), making booking and ticketing possible in all destinations.
