==History==
LAA Air Andorinhões was established, as ''Martlet Airlines'' in 1959 as the national carrier of the [[Republic of Martlet]]. In 1971, following the proclamation of the [[Socialist Republic of the Martlets Islands]], the airline became a public (state-owned) company. It once again changed its name in 1973 to LAA Air Andorinhas and was rebranded to its current name in 1992.
In 2007, the Andorinhean government signed an agreement with the [[CAA Airlines Corporation of the Andorinhões]]. The new administration discontinued the hub at [[São João das Ilhas International Airport]] and moved the arline's hub to [[Ernesto Coelho International Airport]]. In 2009, CAA officially acquired a majority of shares, becoming the majority owner of the company.
