Costa Rica asks Ecuadorians for visas. Ojo.
So is, but I see that this route is for more connections than for the final destination.
But if you have a visa to the US you can enter with that visa
You need a visa to enter Ecuador? Yes I am Venezuelan but only my flight is there and then another destination ?
If you are going to make a connection without leaving the airport transit zone, you do not require a visa..
This means that the route from San Salvador leaves or stays?
No, it is a complement, both routes will operate.
It's good that there is more connectivity from Ecuador, I am glad that Avianca wants to expand operations, Where it says the national routes that Avianca has, Santa Cruz says, maybe it was Saint Christopher. Good post
I'm going to review it.
