Very good news Nicholas. Finally a cargo airline with a national flag 🇪🇨 even if it is a subsidiary of LATAM. I think it's perfect to start with a B767F.
It is true that there was a record of flower exports this Valentine 2022. The Russian market is temporarily affected and we do not know how long due to the seriousness of the conflict and the economic sanctions on that country. Anyway, I think that this conflict for flower exports with LATAM will not be a determining negative point Ecuador 🇪🇨.
That's right Carlos, it is great and good news.
