The Spanish airline Aura Airlines is adding an Airbus A330-200 to its fleet. This carries the registration EC-NOE and was prepared for the first use at Marana Airport.

This long-haul aircraft was previously in the service of South African Airways. Aircastle is the lessor. The widebody was prepared in Marana for operation as a so-called preighter. Aura Airlines intends to use this machine on the Madrid-Bogotá route.

The airline belongs to the JMB Aviation Group. The group owns other airlines. These include Transcarga in Venezuela. In Bogotá, the cargo goods from Europe are to be transported to their destinations with the help of the sister companies.

Until a few months ago, Aura Airlines was known as Gowair. The fleet consists of three Airbus A320s that have the registrations EC-MQH, EC-MXJ and EC-NMY. The company was founded in 2017.
