Seeking to have a greater capacity and offer in its route network, Avianca contracted the airline Wamos Air to operate its Bogota – Los Angeles – Bogota flights and the new seasonal route San Salvador – Madrid – San Salvador.
This airline has already provided its services to Avianca, allowing it to maintain its commitment to travelers and reliably comply with scheduled itineraries. The wet lease modality (aircraft leasing) is a common practice in the airline industry that seeks to support commercial airline operations, when necessary, such as additional flights for high season or to maintain route network capacity.
