What is its postponed restart?, where for a short time in July 2020 returned to Quito and Guayaquil, but now under a more favorable market thanks to the new measures implemented in Spain in favor of tourism, the operation will be permanent.
With flights operating on Sundays since August with weekly frequencies, The airline will seek to recover the space left before the airlines Iberia and Air Europa, which have maintained a permanent operation in the country since the restart of commercial activity.

Indeed Nicholas, It seems strange to me because right now I see the dates from October 2021 to July 2022 and now I get Air France + another airline, It no longer appears like it did weeks ago.. Would it be an error in the App? because I haven't used it since 2019 when I traveled from Quito – Paris – London.
It is possibly true what you say that even in 2022 Return to operate to Quito Air France with the B787-9 or even from 2023. On the other hand, I will never forget that I traveled from the old Mariscal Sucre on the Air France B747-100 (December 1985) with my family to Paris and my brother shared that photo with you months ago, and even Pascal Michellet on Twitter gave his comment.
Greetings
Hi Carlos, It really must have been a system error., nothing more than that, Let's hope Air France returns. About the photo, It is beautiful and I have it very well kept..
A company with businessmen linked to Chavismo and that has been highly criticized for having been rescued by the socialist government of Spain 🇪🇸, I don't see it as reliable and its fleet has been reduced, even more so with Airbus A340 equipment. It is really positive for Ecuador 🇪🇨 to recover traffic but honestly I hope we see more solid and financially stable airlines return, operating long term like Air France since October and others like Lufthansa that already operated in the old Mariscal Sucre are encouraged..
Lufthansa is everyone's dream. I see Air France maybe coming back next year.
Thanks for your reply Nicholas.. Do you know that I tried to book a ticket on airfrance.com from Paris to Quito in the third or fourth week of October 2021 and it turned out to be operated by a Boeing 787-9. That is to say, at the moment AF's return to Ecuador this year is valid..
Hi Carlos, I searched all of October after you told me that and I didn't see it.. Do you have the exact date to see it??
