Arnoro was a charter airline headquartered in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Established in 2004, the airline discontinued its services in 2006. Its primary operations included charter flights mainly serving destinations in Scandinavia and Turkey, with its central base located at Sarajevo International Airport.
From the beginning, Arnoro encountered major operational difficulties. Services to Scandinavia were halted due to safety issues related to the MD-81 aircraft, particularly because it lacked a reinforced cockpit door. Although flights briefly resumed, Sarajevo International Airport suspended Arnoro's operations over unpaid charges, which led the carrier to relocate its flights to Mostar International Airport.
The company then shifted focus towards charter routes connecting Albania, Spain, and African countries. A serious incident took place in Gabon when local authorities refused entry clearance, resulting in the crew being stranded without supplies for three days. Through diplomatic intervention, the crew was eventually repatriated to Sarajevo, while the aircraft remained impounded in Gabon. Following this event, Arnoro terminated all activities and exited the market.
