The subsidiary airline Avianca Costa Rica has requested to operate a new route from its hub in Saint Joseph toward Guayaquil and with extension towards Buenos Aires.

This route will be added to the one that this same airline already operates with 4 weekly frequencies also from San José, but with a stopover in Quito and with a final destination also in Buenos Aires with planes Airbus A320neo with capacity for 180 passengers in a single class.

Avianca is looking for flights on the San José – Guayaquil – Buenos Aires route

concretely, last 3 June 2024, The airline, through its legal representative, requested the General Directorate of Civil Aviation of the Ecuador the operating permit for the air transport service is modified, public, regular international, passenger, cargo and mail, in combined form, awarded by the National Civil Aviation Council, through Agreement No.. 004/2022 from 15 February 2022, modified by the General Directorate of Civil Aviation, with Agreements Nos.. DGAC-DGAC-2022-0011-A 25 July 2022, and DGAC-DGAC-2022-0015-A of 15 September 2022 to operate the following routes and frequencies:

  • SAN JOSE (COSTA RICA) – GUAYAQUIL – BUENOS AIRES – GUAYAQUIL – SAN JOSÉ (COSTA RICA) with up to four (4) weekly frequencies.

This route will operate, in case it comes to fruition, with third party traffic rights, fourth and fifth freedoms of the air.

This is not everything

Too, Avianca Ecuador has requested to fly to Argentina, with the request for the following routes and frequencies:

  • QUITO and/or GUAYAQUIL – BUENOS AIRES and vice versa with up to fourteen (14) weekly frequencies and rights to third and fourth freedoms of the air.

This order from the Ecuadorian subsidiary opens the doors to later, be this the airline that takes the frequencies of Avianca flights to Argentina from Quito and Guayaquil.

These requests come hand in hand, of the recently and finally signed, agreement of Open skies Come in Ecuador and Argentina, which totally releases the number of frequencies that can be operated between both countries. Let us remember that until the signing of the agreement, was only allowed 7 weekly frequencies by country and there were no more available, For this reason, Avianca Costa Rica was the airline that began flights to Buenos Aires from Quito.

Thanks to the long-awaited signing of open skies, The first positive news is beginning to be seen for our market, which we need so much this year., It is still pending to know when the sale of the flights begins and their launch date..

I will keep reporting.
