But a 340 300. How ugly nejor b 787 O 777 modern for long distance travel
It is a beautiful plane and allows you to fly directly to Quito given the height of the terminal.
And even the operation in Quito of Air France makes it more significant for the international tourism market due to its solid history and restart of operations is much better than as a subsidiary Joon.
Now I'm not sure what will happen to KLM if its offer or frequencies will be affected.? Nicolás, what do you think about it??
Changes in air ticket prices due to more competition? Because just as we know Air France – KLM operate together commercially but operate under separate brands.
With KLM no change is expected, They are a complement between both and rather, is an increase in frequencies of the Air France group – KLM and Ecuador.
The clarification and provision of an immediate future service from the French airline seems perfect to me., which supports the potential of the tourism and business market that Ecuador has.
Strongly agree.
