History

Iberojet Airbus A350-900 in former Evelop livery

The company is owned by Barceló Viajes (English: Barceló Trips), and was bought by Barceló Group in 2013 following the collapse of Orizonia Corporation.^{[citation needed]} Originally, the company was established under the name Evelop Airlines, before it became a sister company to Portuguese airline Orbest under Barceló. On 8 December 2020, Evelop was merged with Orbest and the two airlines subsequently operated under the Iberojet name. Prior to this, Evelop had accumulated a fleet of Airbus widebody aircraft, including its first Airbus A350-900 in 2019,^[3] after which the fleets of Evelop and Orbest were combined as part of the merger.

In 2021, Iberojet supplied the UK Home Office with a charter deportation plane.^[4] In 2022, Iberojet took over all scheduled long-haul services to the Caribbean from Wamos Air.^[5]
