Expansion of Colombian airline flight services
Overview
Colombian airlines are expanding and restoring flight services across Latin America and within Colombia.
Avianca has updated its Latin American operations, highlighting daily flights between Bogota and Valencia, Venezuela, and reestablishing service in Caracas to improve connectivity between Colombia and Venezuela. The airline is also promoting specific round-trip fares from Miami to destinations including Bogota, Medellin, and Managua.
In domestic developments, Wingo has increased capacity on the route between Bucaramanga and Santa Marta, adding 7,812 seats and increasing weekly frequencies. Additionally, Avianca is resuming flights to Pereira following the certification of technical and safety conditions at Matecaña International Airport. The airline plans to start with four daily flights from Bogota and Medellin, with intentions to gradually increase capacity to 10 daily flights as infrastructure recovers.
