This important agreement will allow both Colombian and Canadian airlines to operate without barriers or limitations between the two territories, which will enable more airlines to offer greater service offerings.

The airlines currently have the following routes approved:

AIR CANADA:
Toronto – Bogotá – Toronto, with five (5) weekly frequencies.
Toronto – Cartagena – Toronto, with three (3) weekly frequencies.
Montreal – Bogota – Montreal, with three (3) weekly frequencies.
