Three airlineíNeas want alive
The aviation industryón and Colombia has experienced significant growth in úlast toños, promoted by the increase in tourism and investmentóforeign n. Viva Air is one of the main airlineílow cost neas in Colombia, that offers flights to national and international destinations at competitive prices. Since its launch in 2012, the airíNEA has increased its fleet and routes, And it has been well received by travelers looking for economic optionsómicas.
In this context, known is the intentionón of Avianca as first interested, in making an alliance with Viva In the context of maintaining your operationón like himíDER DEL SEGMENT low cost Colombian, But joining economic effortsómicos and growth, pero is intentón has not progressed to Aerocivil Negative.
The other interested party is JetSmart based in Chile, which presentedó are interés días atrás, for which to beíTo very convenient to buy it given its current creation processón of the subsidiary JetSmart Colombia, What to saveíA lot of steps, time and money shortening the process, being able to start flights in less time in case of materializing.

we will keep updating.
I think the best thing would be to make the agreement with JetSmart. With Avianca and Latam, only one competitor would be eliminated and the presence of two already strong airlines in the market would grow.. Jetsmart and Viva are very similar in aircraft types, operation, etc. With JetSmart a competitor is not eliminated and it does not affect the user as it would with Latam and Avianca.
I agree, it would seem, at least on papers, that with JetSmart the competition conditions would be better.
