The load grows in the Quito airport impulsado por la temporada de alta anual que va desde enero a febrero con la exportación principal de flores.
Llega fines de enero y con ello se abre oficialmente la temporada de flores con la exportación de miles de toneladas de rosas hacia el mundo por San Valentín y Día de la Mujer en Russia on the part of the aerolícargo nets that operate towards Ecuador.
The Quito Mariscal Sucre Airport es la principal puerta de entrada y salida de la carga que se mueve en el país alcanzando entre el 85% and 90% of the participationón del mercado y año a año sigue creciendo.
This growth has been driven by several factors, pero principalmente por la creciente exportación de la codiciada a nivel mundial rosa ecuatoriana, spaghettién factores como apertura de nuevos mercados, acuerdo con la Unión Europea e incremento del intercambio comercial con Estados Unidos ha permitido al país seguir posicionándose en el ámbito de la exportación.
Stadiumístatic
The best way as always to demonstrate growth, es con datos exactos y estadísticas que demuestren esta evolución. Presentamos los datos estadísticas en toneladas transportadas total tanto de ingreso como de salida de Ecuador de los úlast 5 años desde la principal terminal carguera de Ecuador, Tababela:
| AñO | tons | Variationón % |
| 2014 | 181,042 | 11.40% |
| 2015 | 181,445 | 0.20% |
| 2016 | 180,792 | -0.40% |
| 2017 | 203,992 | 12.80% |
| 2018 | 231,945 | 13.70% |
Growth has been sustained, having únicamente una caída el añO 2016 in comparisonón with him 2015 y este último un mínimo crecimiento comparado con el 2014.
Instead, los años 2017 and 2018 han sido los mejores añus hereóricos para el Aeropuerto de Quito tanto desde la apertura de la nueva terminal como en el antiguo Marisca Sucre.
As mentioned, Several factors have driven this growth, that alsoén ha ido de la mano de un aumento en las operaciones aéreas de carga en esta terminal:
| AñO | flights |
| 2014 | 5,134 |
| 2015 | 5,341 |
| 2016 | 5,136 |
| 2017 | 5,672 |
| 2018 | 6,355 |
The increase in cargo operations movements is unprecedented and the 2018 a 12% más de vuelos llegaron al aeropuerto de Quito, which goes hand in hand with the increase in tons transported.
Aerolíneas cargueras
Estos más de 6 mil vuelos se han dado bajo la operación de las siguientes aerolíneas regulares que aquí operate, más otras bajo modalidad chárter que entre enero y febrero llegan a Quito contratadas para transportar la tan grande demanda:
- Sky Lease Cargo
- KLM Cargo
- Atlas Air Cargo
- LATAM Cargo and its subsidiaries
- UPS Airlines
- Cargolux
- THE
- MASAIR Cargo
- Avianca Cargo
- Qatar Charge
- Emirates Sky Cargo
- Cuban Cargo
With these 12 aerolíneas la carga es transportadas principalmente a Miami y Amsterdam como principales centros de distribución de la carga ecuatoriana hacia el mundo.
Los principales operadores por números de frecuencia son LATAM Cargo y Avianca Cargo, although alsoén hay que agregar la operación regular de las aerolípassenger lines, where alsoén miles de toneladas son transportadas diariamente.
It is 2019 It is expected to equal or improve what was the 2018 en toneladas transportadas y número de vuelos de carga, given the factors that have driven growth mentioned above.
I see clearly that he lost his impartiality
Your comments no longer have a journalistic criterion to comment on aviation events
I had a lot of respect for him
Not at all, we are just debating and to do it, Real data must be provided and not just speculate or launch claims of alleged impact on Guayaquil without evidence.. That's all, we need the country to know if this is the case, What has been the impact with tests?, not only with words.
What irony only in Quito there are flowers
The rest of the central and southern country of the mountains do not produce
Those came out through Guayaquil, not now
The only thing I agree with is that the more we export, the better for our country, but without discriminating against anyone.
Do you have the data on how many flowers are produced in the south of the country? Too, a document that guarantees that now they do it only from Quito and that not a single flower takes off from Guayaquil, despite having 300 tons of daily air capacity for the transport of all types of commerce?
I am Quiteño and I don't give a damn what cargo comes from wherever it is. The important thing is that Ecuador exports more and more. Having said this, yes Tababela is 30 minutes of roses, Who would choose Guayaquil to take them out?, To the exterior? It's blanket, which having an open water port. Has been postponed in favor of GYE….more expensive
So is, The important thing is that the load grows and the market does so, Independent, where it comes from.
I hope they leave the airlines free to choose freely without pressure of any kind and operations can be carried out in Latacunga and probably Guayaquil.
That there be total freedom for exporting airlines so that they can negotiate with airports, conditions, facilities and good rates as well as service without delays.
Correct, market freedom.
Latacunga took what is cargo from Quito ppr they came to shout that in Quito, since it is the main airport, it has the right to accommodate what is cargo, but don't worry, the big firm from Qatar and the Arab Emirates and Korean cargo are going to operate from Latacunga to the world and The prince and owner of the Emirates airline are going to bring the equipment on their planes to set up the cold rooms here in Pisque so that the people of Quito suffer. They are going to operate but they are also in for a surprise.
I hope the Qatar issue comes to fruition., Emirates that some authorities are already talking, although I see it very far away, given that both already operate in Quito with complete success.
I respect your judgment
I don't agree with this topic
The story has been going on for more than thirty years and I do know it.
In any case, in theory companies have freedom, in practice they do not
It is the same DAC that originates these privileges that will one day end
For now we just have to continue seeing the aerial world of our country with great sadness.
Let's hope Ecuador continues to grow in aeronautics.
Forgive me but it seems that Ecuador does not know its geography, but its flower production centers.
Those from the Quito area are justified in leaving Quito
But the rest of the country also produces flowers and Guayaquil has always been a loading center for those produced in the central-southern part of the mountains that today force us to go to Quito.
Latscubga was enabled to be a cargo departure port due to its location, runway climate and, above all, because of the facilities it provided.
Seeing that there was no cargo in Quito, they practically closed the Latacunga exit, which their authorities are now trying to confront the DAC to start over with a minimal aerocsribe operation with a small 737 But they must leave the airlines and exporters free to choose what is best for their interests.
You said it, Airlines are free to fly wherever they want and that is how it is today and always. Quito has always been Ecuador's main cargo terminal, It seems to me that you are overestimating what Latacunga was transporting., where Cargolux only flew with 3 weekly flights, what would they be 300 tons per week, while from Quito they now fly with 5 weekly flights or 500 tons, the cargo is and always has been in Quito, without taking away the fact that Latacunga has its potential, but it must develop it on its own, even more so when it is administered by the same DGAC and you insinuate that it is the one that limits or slows it down to make way for Quito, which has always had a minimum 8 scheduled cargo airlines, not just one.
Latacunga has a lot to improve in cold room infrastructure, palletization, etc. Part of the reasons for Cargolux's departure, since the current ones limited the amount that could “to withdraw” on every flight, while in Quito there are no limitations and plenty of infrastructure to improve.
Latacunga has everything to be a plan B and they started again very well with Aercaribe, for something one starts.
Cargo grows in Quito ??
of course
If they put obstacles so that Latacunga and Guayaquil operate as they did before, part of the cargo traffic of outbound flowers in exports to favor the Quito airport, which was short of cargo.
Rather, they dare to publish the movements years ago of the traffic in Latacunga and Guayaquil, which is now zero due to the centralist management of the civil aviation authorities.
Latacunga was authorized and operated for years to record cargo movement. Flores was an airline base, as an example of Cargolux, but now not everything is in Quito, not because of the decision of the exporters, but because of “civil aviation facilities so that it can be done in Quito.”
That is the reason for the increase.
If the bulk of the load is flowers and they are located 30 O 60 minutes from Quito, What does Latacunga and Guayaquil have to do with this?? Each airport must look after its interests and focus on the cargo they have nearby and exploit it.
Latacunga has hundreds of flower growers nearby, there is business, but they must exploit it, The fact that Cargolux has stopped flying there is due to something much deeper that is far from the topic of this blog..
Quito has never competed with Guayaquil in cargo, It makes no sense in terms of the products that each exports..
Thank you very much Nicolás for the information..
A hug.
You're welcome Carlos!
