metó that Avianca Ecuador asks to fly to Buenos Aires…
UPDATEÓN: 29/10/2017:
After requesting the operating permitón to fly from Quito and/or Guayaquil to Buenos Aires with up to 7 times a week, the aeron authorityáutica of Ecuador NEGÓ the application in its entirety in the first instance:
In this instance the airínea does not comply with the legal requirements, by not complying with the operationón of the 70% of its authorized routes (This means that it has assigned más routes than the ones you currently fly) and alsoén, by not existingás frequencies available in the Bilateral Agreement between Ecuador and Argentina, in which with años 2013, only has 7 weekly frequencies.
The next step for Aerolínea beíto request a reviewón at their assigned frequencies, and the most difficultícil, request a reviewón to the bilateral agreement between both países. We will update…

This order arrivesíundress theméI know that Tame requestedó remove from your operating permitóOn the route to Buenos Aires, so this movement of Avianca Ecuador can come from the hand of what was requested by Tame (maybe because of the alliance they have, ¿it is a favor?).
It should be noted that this is just a request and does not mean that the job has been approved.ámite or let the flights startánya, but if it is a departure for a potential start of operations towards Buenos Aires and soí the return of direct flights between both countriesíses. Currently, LATAM Ecuador flies daily to Buenos Aires, but with a stopover in Lima from Quito with its Airbus A319 planes.
Other point of this request, is that Avianca Ecuador has been hiring new pilots in the úlast few months and there is an active hiring processón, so alsoén, if everything is specified and speculating a little, it is possible that there will be an increase in the fleet to cover this new destination, which practically involves the useón of 24 avi hoursón that is intended for this flight that has a durationódearest of 6 hours from Quito and 5 hours with 30 minutes from Guayaquil.
For the flights to be finalized, we should wait at least 4 months (calculation based on other similar requests that have been given in the úlast time) until authorization is givenón for both países and bilaterals, we will see whaté happens.
