It operated charter services from its base in Mallorca using McDonnell Douglas MD-83 aircraft.

Centennial Airlines went bankrupt in 1995 and ceased operations in 1996. An investigation regarding the apparent fraudulent bankruptcy of the company followed. The accused were the former administrators of Centennial Airlines SA, including its Honorary President, Francisco Carrión Orfila, a prestigious Spanish entrepreneur and former owner of the Menorca-based El Caserío cream cheese factory.
