The updated information of the 22 May 2020, by the Minister of Government also indicates the following:

  • Commercial passenger operations may resume with the 30% of the authorized frequencies from the 1 of June.

Based on this information, The number of flights that airlines will be able to operate will depend on the number of frequencies approved in their respective operating permit for each route operated..

International and domestic flights resume in Ecuador

This information was confirmed by the Minister of Public Works MTOP in his account. Twitter:

This request was formally presented to the National COE on the date 1 June 2020 as the moment in which regular flights to the country will return, once all the actors have presented their respective security protocols that we announced days ago.

Once the National COE issues the official resolution, The airline industry in Ecuador will be able to reactivate and thus resume activities that have been partially suspended since 17 last march, maintaining only repatriation flights, humanitarian, operational emergency and charging.

    I came the day 3 from June to Ecuador on the first flight after the confinement. It was a quite tedious and rigorous process to ensure that passengers complied with the new security protocol.. They ask that each passenger have their COVID tests in their hands at least 72 hours of recent. Also, They make them sign an agreement where each passenger will voluntarily put themselves in a quarantine of 14 days, providing place of residence. Total, from the moment of arrival to departure, if it takes me an hour. My quarantine 14 days ends tomorrow.

      1. Nicolas,

        And, This time may be delayed for passengers who do not have their tests in hand.. That day, There was a group that received “rapid” tests because they did not have those tests in their hands.. Those had to wait longer. I congratulate the government of Ecuador for the security process taken.

  4. I had my flight to Lam for 1 June I was charged and now they canceled I made a new reservation for the 16 June and they canceled me again now I have rescheduled for 15 June God wanted and don't cancel my route again in Cuenca- Quito

    What airline flies the Chile route?- Ecuador that my wife needs to travel, is in that country almost 3 months. I had the ticket in LATAN, he had to return 17 of June, Due to the quarantine, flights were suspended; In May he renewed his return ticket for the 6 June but later they informed in the email that the flight was canceled. Please help us with telephone numbers to contact us with other airlines. Thanks.

  7. Good afternoon, when will Copa Airlines flights resume to Guayaquil Ecuador from Tampa?? If you have fewer passengers, now take more luggage and please do not take anything out of the suitcases because we carry with a lot of sacrifice, thank you

  8. Good evening, I would like you to help me if flights from Spain also enter the country? An example KLM which is my flight? Or what airlines? Greetings and thanks in advance

      1. Oyanet Miranda

        Buenas tardes, I would like to know when the flights restart, especially to be able to enter.
        My boyfriend is in Lima – Peru operated and already wants to return , no later than about eight days

    1. Brother, although Ecuador has already opened its airports, now it depends on Spain.
      From what I found out here in Spain, international flights are scheduled for July..
      Personally, I want to fly to Ecuador as soon as possible., I want to go home.

  9. Buenas tardes, a family member comes from NY, to Quito and our house is in Ambato, The APO can fulfill it here in Ambato?

  10. Hello there,

    I am American and I have my fiancé in Ecuador. Is it possible that I can travel to Ecuador from 1 of June? My original flight was to 3 of June, But they just suspended it for airline policy reasons., but not through the Guayaquil airport. Please report.

  11. If some airlines start from June 1 to make commercial flights from NY to Guayaquil, What security is there that they will not close the airport in Guayaquil again?? I have a trip in July and I wouldn't want the airport to close..

  12. Could you help me by confirming whether both domestic and international flights will resume in June? ? I have a flight on 6 June leaving from Quito to JFK but I don't know if I will be able to acquire an internal flight from Cuenca to Quito because I don't know if I will be able to fly intermittently to be able to reach my second international flight ???help please

  13. Sonia Suntaxi

    There are thousands of people who want to return to Spain. I'm running out of money . We have our work and debts there, and so does our family.. It is necessary that they also think about us and take measures. Please, all of us who are here need urgent help..

  14. Angelo Herrera

    The problem will be due to the danger itself in countries that have more cases of the virus, that is the reason.,Furthermore, there will be no stopovers, only direct flights..

    1. I have a flight for him 1 June by Air Europa to reunite with my family in Spain. Will that flight be effective? I just don't know who to believe anymore.

  15. Adriana Pentafragas

    I have been checking flights to Greece and if there are flights from Quito – Panama – Istanbul – Greece with Copa and Turkish airlines. I would be interested in leaving or him 5 or the 15 June and there is no date, it is advisable to leave because I don't know if the national airports ( Cuenca- Quito ) and the international ones are already functioning normally , and I wouldn't want to buy a ticket and lose it because of bad information. . What would you recommend to me? ?

  16. Mr Larenas good night. Please give your opinion on whether airlines (in Ecuador mainly) have carried out preventive maintenance on aircraft that have NOT been operational, so they can pass controls (FAA, THERE IT IS) and are able to restart flights in compliance 100% regular air safety regulations, in addition to the biosafety measures that they must adopt now. Or will it be that they will only start with these activities from June/01? I would understand that it will be a gradual resumption…? AND, If the minimum isolation period requirement is maintained (7 O 14 days), This will mean adding that time to each destination of the trip??
    Thanks

    1. Yes, All airlines have carried out maintenance for aircraft on the ground as dictated by the manuals of their respective aircraft., What should be done at this time?, which guarantees the restart of flights. Maintenance and preservation activities have been carried out from day one.

      1. I would like information to enter Ecuador through Colombia and then take an international flight to Miami, What requirements are required to enter Ecuador?

  17. Rosaura Moreno

    I stayed in Los Angeles I should have returned on 1 from April to Ecuador. Guayaquil in a glass they told me at the agency
    of trips that changed my ticket for the 8 of June , I hope they don't postpone it because so far I've been waiting for a month and a half and until June it will be two months waiting for my return ,They should take precautions and take us back to our country and then suspend flights again, that is my humble and desperate opinion.

  18. They should allow the quarantine to be done at home...maybe they should put a shackle so that people don't go out during the quarantine. The hostels of 2* cuesta $35 plus taxes...only with breakfast. To that we must add lunch and dinner. All this added by 14 quarantine days is too expensive.

  19. Miryan herrada

    And for Venezuela when? I am stranded here in Ecuador, I just came to visit my son and I had my return scheduled for May 2nd and it was suspended., Then they set it for me on June 2nd and the Copa airline now says no., It's not until November and I want to return since I have my mother there in Venezuela and she is in poor health.

  20. Livia Andrea Guevara Chiliquinga

    I want to know if it will be possible to fly to Spain, Please I have been staying since March and the economic situation is already over, My work, my obligations await me in Madrid, now it depends on the airline we travel with???

  21. you take fields

    Please report well because I am already blocked here 4 months and I only came for a month I was supposed to return in March and I couldn't after that in April and nothing after May and nothing now it's fair that if the flights restart we can return home to where our relatives xf keep us informed. Thanks

      1. Cristian Israel

        They are saying that flights will be normalized in June, So that is being able to travel from Spain to Ecuador and from Ecuador to Spain?
        How is it then that the airlines decide now?….

        1. Angelo Herrera

          The problem will be due to the danger itself in countries that have more cases of the virus, that is the reason.,Furthermore, there will be no stopovers, only direct flights..

  22. Travelers returning on commercial flights must complete the APO? Namely, I have to prove that I have made a reservation at a hotel? Or I can quarantine at home?

  23. Noemi Mirales

    It seems perfect to me, it is now that all activities begin to resume, the country can't take it anymore.
    Of course, it goes without saying that all biosafety protocol measures are taken.
    And above all, respecting natural laws that will not allow it to be defiled once again..
    God is the King and Lord and left us very specific rules on how to take care of our planet.. Edo should never depart from the minds and hearts of those who leave behind everything that moves the world..

  24. I have my flight 1 June 2020 it will be that I can fly to see my children and my husband again. I have a baby in Iberia. I would very much like to be able to. Reunite with my family

  25. Cristian Israel

    How is this, Before they said that all commercial flights were reactivated.
    Now they tell us that they will only be humanitarian and cargo flights?
    Please inform well.

    1. Maria Elena Segura

      Starting on June 1, the airport will reopen and commercial airlines will gradually begin to integrate, as long as they comply with the protocol
