Within the current health emergency around the coronavirus, Ecuador has not yet defined an exact date for the restart of the commercial flights.

Within the general framework that the country lives through COVID-19, The national government through the National Emergency Operations Committee has not yet defined an exact or at least tentative date., of the restart of flights in Ecuador, both international and domestic.

After the implementation of the so-called Traffic Lights in the Social Distancing Phase that come into effect from Monday 4 May 2020, no exact flight restart date has been specified, but the following is specified:

  • Measures under parameters of the Traffic Light apply between 4 al 31 May of 2020.

In this point, reviewing the general measures of the Traffic Lights, We can note the following general indications, that regardless of the color red, red, yellow or green, they will be applied at the national level:

  • The ban on interprovincial passenger transport is maintained.
  • Land and air borders remain closed (Only return flights for nationals and humanitarian flights provided for in the protocols are allowed.). The obligation to comply with the APO in accordance with the protocols is maintained.
  • Interprovincial transportation of parcels is authorized.

With these instructions, It is confirmed that flights throughout May will continue to be suspended and the new tentative resumption date would be 1 June 2020 (but not official and mandatory compliance), Of course, it will be subject to change depending on how the national and global emergency continues to develop..

In the meantime, flights will continue to operate repatriation, You can review the list of available flights here:

All this information is official and during May there will be no regular commercial flights, but an exact date for the resumption of operations was not confirmed either., which still generates uncertainty in the industry and in travelers who have purchased tickets or are waiting for the reopening of borders to return to or leave Ecuador..
