All NAYSA aircraft were operated under a franchise agreement as Binter Canarias into which it has been merged in spring 2018.[2][3]
History
The airline was founded by Alfonso Carrero, it was established and started operations on 7 May 1969 at
Commuter Airlines in Europe. It established the first regular services between the Canary Islands and the Spanish Sahara and linked Madrid Barajas with smaller airports throughout Spain. On 1975 Spain lost the Spanish Sahara and several Government subsidised contracts were lost. The company changed owners in 1977 and transferred its headquarters to Las Palmas. It is owned by Canarias de Aviación (75%) and Serair (25%) and has 28 employees as of March 2007.[1]
In spring 2018, Binter decided to merge NAYSA into its own operations and therefore handed back NAYSA's
