Boeing 737-700NG ”Amaro Pargo”
The Story Behind Amaro Pargo
Amaro Pargo is named after Amaro Rodríguez Felipe, the legendary Tenerife privateer and merchant who sailed between Europe and the Canary Islands during the 18th century.
Known for his mastery of navigation and his role in protecting trade routes across the Atlantic, Amaro Pargo became a symbol of movement, trust and connection between distant shores.
These qualities align perfectly with the role of the Boeing 737 within the SunBird fleet. Agile, efficient and dependable, the 737 forms the backbone of SunBird’s short- and medium-haul charter operations from Brussels.
Operating routes that link Northern Europe with leisure destinations, Amaro Pargo represents the spirit of travel as connection — smooth, reliable and purpose-driven.
Just as its namesake once connected continents by sea, the Boeing 737 Amaro Pargo connects travellers to the sun — the SunBird way.
