Hello Nicolás, this is good news for the country., A few months ago I sent you my CV for a flight operations technician., I don't know if the company is going to hire these employees., I appreciate your help .
Hello Fernando, It seems to me that those positions hire via Swissport or TALMA
But what has changed?? Tourist visas have already been activated for Mexico? Or what do you think is the reason for the restart of flights??
Hi Carlos, For me it is the opportunity for the massive increase in traffic that will occur due to the World Cup., That will help support the demand that does exist, so Mexican visas cannot be issued, Ecuadorians continue traveling with their Canadian or United States visa.
Great Nicolás! Not only for the World Cup ⚽🏆 but for the thrust to the economy thanks to traffic and tourism that reaches Ecuador. Yes the B737 Max 8 Basically and in high season the 9 as happened before leaving operations in Quito. Thus we need the airlines to return, Air France remains pending where I could travel just before I stopped operating in our capital.
Let's see if goal also returns.
I thought the authorities had confirmed the return, no?
Yes, but it seems that it is not going to happen soon.
I mean not in 2026?
Or maybe later 2026, not first semester as they had said.
