Is a negative test needed for domestic flights in Ecuador? before your questions, we clarify the requirements for domestic flights in the country.
Progress in the pandemic makes a possible end, although many say that this virus is here to stay, there are situations of daily life such as traveling that lately have been more complex than before.
This complexity was born thanks to the measures restrictive than governments imposed on travel and not only international, also domestic.
Is a negative test needed for flights in Ecuador?
In this context, Ecuador at the time it was not the exception and we did have for a few days the requirement of a negative test to fly domestically between Quito and Guayaquil (without counting Galapagos that's another topic), but now it is not needed.
answering the question, no type of negative test is needed for domestic flights in Ecuador how to Cuenca, Store, Manta, Coca, Guayaquil, Quito, etc.
In the case of Galapagos, despite being a domestic flight more, yes you had for many months as a requirement to present a negative test, but this requirement was removed for vaccinated people (unvaccinated must present a PCR test) the 11 February 2022.
I prepared a flight report where I explain more details about what it is like to fly between Guayaquil and Quito, plus the requirements that are needed:
So if someone tells you that you must present a negative test to fly domestic in Ecuador, don't do it, there's no need, since no one will ask them for that document and they will lose money.
International arrivals
Let's not forget that, for travelers coming on international flights the requirements also changed from the 11 of February and I detail them here:
I also made a video summarizing the current requirements to enter Ecuador and Galapagos:
