Corendon Dutch Airlines is a Dutch charter and scheduled airline headquartered in Badhoevedorp, Haarlemmermeer.[2] It is a sister company of Corendon Airlines and Corendon Airlines Europe.[3]

History

Corendon Dutch Airlines is the Dutch branch of the Corendon Group. It started operations under its own AOC in April 2011 using a single Boeing 737-800 aircraft serving European and African holiday destinations from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol and Maastricht Aachen Airport.[4]

In November 2023, Corendon Dutch Airlines entered a long-term agreement with Spanish airline World2Fly to wetlease a single A350-900 aircraft for operations to Curaçao International Airport.[5] The aircraft was configured to include an "Adult Only Zone" in the front of the aircraft.[6] In 2024, Corendon Dutch Airlines started operations to Bonaire's Flamingo International Airport, utilizing the same aircraft.[7]

In 2025, the Corendon Group celebrated its 25th anniversary by introducing a special tattoo livery on a Corendon Dutch Airlines 737 MAX 9 aircraft, designed by Dutch tattoo artist Henk Schiffmacher. The aircraft was nicknamed "Sweet Louise", after Schiffmacher's wife.[8]
