Avianca premium service expansion

Overview

Avianca has announced the introduction of ‘INSIGNIA by Avianca’, a premium business class service designed for long-haul routes connecting South America with Europe and North America. The service focuses on enhancing privacy and comfort, particularly on the airline’s Boeing 787 Dreamliner fleet.

Key features of the upgrade include hardware improvements such as 19-inch 4K entertainment screens, Bluetooth audio, and enhanced charging capabilities. The passenger experience will also include curated amenities like noise-canceling headphones and designer pajamas, alongside new menus developed by chefs Alvaro Clavijo and Rafael Buitarago.

To support this rollout, the airline is consolidating its Business Class Américas service across continental routes and introducing ‘Magno’, a new status tier for the Lifemiles and Smiles loyalty programs. This strategic move aims to capture high-spending corporate travelers and increases competition with regional rivals like LATAM.
