Strengthening Routes to Key Destinations

- Athens: 5 additional frequencies

This effort complements the regular connections to capitals like Paris and London, as well as long-haul routes to New York, Boston, Buenos Aires, and Sao Paulo.
Domestically, the Canary Islands top the preferences for Easter travel, solidifying their position as one of the most popular destinations for the holiday period.

Between Europe and Latin America: 3.2 million seats available, representing a 4% increase compared to the previous year.
Short- and medium-haul: 16 million seats offered, in line with 2024 capacity.
