Avianca to reactivate Aviateca's operation

Avianca announced on Wednesday that, as of the end of 2022, and subject to government authorization, it will reactivate the operation of Aviateca for domestic and international flights, under Avianca’s commercial brand. Thanks to this initiative, Guatemala will have more investment, tourism and customers will have access to a greater connectivity offer.

→ Avianca announces 7 new routes and strengthens connectivity with U.S., Brazil and Chile.

Initially the routes to be operated by the airline are:

Guatemala City – Flores, starting December 1.
Guatemala City – Palmerola (Tegucigalpa), starting December 1.
Guatemala City – San Salvador, starting December 6.

“Guatemala is an important market for Avianca in which we see great potential to develop our business model with a local operator. So far this year more than 350,000 passengers have flown with us on more than 3,500 flights to nearly 60 destinations throughout the continent. Today we repay that trust with a new domestic and international operation that will increase the number of seats per week by more than 2,500 on 14 flights a week,” said Frederico Pedreira, Avianca’s Chief Operations Officer.

Avianca informed that the routes will be operated in Airbus A320 aircraft, with capacity for 180 passengers, which will provide faster, safer and more comfortable flights to travel while enjoying the attributes that characterize Avianca: a wide route network, access to benefits as part of the LifeMiles loyalty program, punctuality and a solid commercial offer of customizable sizes with more than 15 complementary products such as additional baggage, protected cancellation, seat selection, priority boarding, among others.
