William Shaw, founder and CEO of Ultra Air, in an interview with reportur.co, commented on the plans they have to open routes internationally next year, where they contemplate destinations in neighboring countries of Colombia and also to North America.
In less than a year, since its start of operations in Colombia, the airline reached a 11% market share of the routes it operates, including the following national destinations: Bogota, Medellin, Cali, Barranquilla, Hunting, Cartagena, Pereira, Saint Andrew and Saint Martha. On the other hand, the percentage of general participation in the domestic market is located in a 6%.
