Dutch Caribbean carrier InselAir has launched a new route, the company announced.

Last week, the carrier began its first-ever flights between Aruba and Maracaibo, Venezuela.

InselAir had already been serving the destination out of Curacao, but “to meet the demand between Maracaibo and Aruba,” it launched two weekly flights.

Maracaibo is InselAir Aruba’s third destination in Venezuela; the flights will depart Aruba on Wednesdays and Saturdays, with outbound flights from Maracaibo on Thursdays and Sundays.

The company is the largest airline operating out of Aruba.
