Fleet
Nordica Aviation Group (IATA: ND, ICAO: NDA) was an Estonian airline wholly owned by the Republic of Estonia. Founded on 25 September 2015 and commencing operations on 8 November 2015, the airline ceased operations on 20 November 2024. During its operational period, it established itself as a regional carrier connecting the Nordic and Baltic regions.
The airline operated three main hubs: Tallinn Airport (its primary base in Estonia), Copenhagen Airport, and Stockholm-Arlanda Airport in Sweden. This strategic network positioning allowed Nordica to serve connections across Scandinavia and the Baltic region, linking smaller cities to major Nordic transport hubs.
Nordica's fleet comprised a mix of aircraft suited to regional operations: the Airbus A320 and modern A320neo for mainline routes, the Bombardier CRJ900 for medium-range regional services, and the ATR 72 turboprop for shorter regional routes. Passengers could accumulate Miles & More frequent flyer points through the airline's partnership with Scandinavian Airlines.
