Today I share the chronicle and analysis of the flight with Clic in airplanes ATR 42 and ATR 72 Come in Bogota, Villavicencio and Olaya Herrera Airport Medellin.
The development of regional connectivity in Colombia has on the airline Clic (previously EasyFly) to one of its main driving forces. The country's geography requires efficient solutions to link strategic urban centers with regions of high production and economic interest that do not always justify the operation of narrow-body aircraft.. In this opportunity, We evaluate this operational network through two independent experiences that show the versatility of the fleet ATR of the company.
This is what flying with Click is like
The first journey took us aboard the ATR 42-600 flying from the Terminal 2 (Airlift) of the El Dorado International Airport on Bogota (BOG) to the Vanguardia Airport in Villavicencio (VVC), the gateway to the Eastern Plains. To find out what this short but essential flight is like for the connectivity of the area, I have prepared a detailed visual report on my YouTube channel.
In this first video, We analyze the agility of boarding from the Air Bridge, the behavior of the ATR 42-600 at the crossing over the Eastern Cordillera and arrival at the historic airport of the capital of Meta, a nerve center for aviation in the Colombian Orinoco region.
The triangulation return route with flight to Medellín
For the return trip, logistics offered a particularly interesting itinerary for industry enthusiasts: connect from Villavicencio to Bogota, but making a stopover with a change of plane in the Olaya Herrera Airport (EOH), located in the urban center of Medellin. This second section was documented in a new independent video that is now available on the audiovisual platform.
This second audiovisual report is divided into two phases:
- Villavicencio to Medellin (EOH) an ATR 42-600: A flight that allows you to appreciate the visual approach towards the Aburrá Valley basin to land in one of the most emblematic heritage air terminals in South America.
- Medellin (EOH) to Bogotá by ATR 72-600: The connection to the capital was made aboard the fleet's flagship aircraft, the ATR 72-600. This model, the largest and most modern variant of the Franco-Italian turboprop family, It stands out for its greater seating capacity and efficiency per passenger kilometer, ideal for high-density routes between regional airports and hubs..
Efficiency and comfort in Clic's ATR fleet
Test consecutively the ATR 42-600 and the ATR 72-600 allowed me to compare the evolution of Clic's product, but within the same standard. The series -600 of ATR incorporates the digital avionics suite (Glass Cockpit) and the Armonia cabin, designed to offer a quieter environment, larger overhead luggage compartments and adaptive LED lighting. And I want to highlight the silence, I have flown on many airplanes and on these ATR the technological leap of the engines and interior modifications is noticeable, really is, ¡wow!
Operate from Olaya Herrera Airport adds an extremely convenient logistical factor for the passenger, by substantially reducing ground transfer times compared to the journey from Black river (MDE).
I invite you to watch both flight reports on YouTube to learn more about the experience., the onboard service and technical performance of these aircraft in the complex Colombian topography.
