TACA returned in an Avianca Airbus
After launching on its anniversary number 100 an airplane with the commemorative painting of Avianca in the years 50, the airline today unveils its second aircraft in retro paint to proudly commemorate its history, its origins and with a view to continuing to strengthen its presence throughout the Americas. It's about a Airbus A320 with registration N564AV that from today wears the livery of the Central American company TACA (Transportes Aéreos del Continente Americano S.A.) founded in 1931.
The plane's transformation process took about 13 days they worked 30 technicians who shaped the image that one of the most influential companies in Central American aviation wore in the years 90. Initially, the aircraft will fly in Colombian skies and in the 2023 will come to The Savior. It will also have the new Economy seats, Plus y Premium.
“We recognize our origins and roots and we want to honor that legacy, because it is what allows us today to be stronger and prouder than ever to continue building an Avianca for Everyone. We start this project when we celebrate our 100 years with the Avianca livery of the years 50 and now we commemorate TACA”, Adrian Neuhauser, President and CEO of Avianca.
Avianca has a solid connectivity network that unites 6 countries of Central America and the Caribbean with each other, and to that region with the rest of the continent with a solid operation of more than 400 weekly frequencies. To the date, 2.000 of the 12.000 collaborators that the airline has, they come from TACA. AND, so far this year, more of 4 million passengers have left or entered from El Salvador, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico and Nicaragua.
With this initiative Avianca celebrates its history, the pride of being Latino and the dream of continuing to unite the region. It is expected in the coming weeks that more historic airlines that did what is today Avianca be present at the paintings of different aircraft of the group.

It is commendable to recognize those large regional airlines or airlines from certain Latin American countries such as TACA that were once an icon in their country before their merger.
We also hope that Avianca in the case of Ecuador, remember Aerogal.
Thank you Nicholas for this news, Cheers.
I think the Aerogal thing will happen, so stay tuned!
What a beautiful liviery, I hope that with this same spirit they make one dedicated to Aerogal, whose colors are missed in Ecuador.
I think so!
