Once this process is completed, they will be able to fly with the company again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The reinstatement of our pilots is one more step towards building an Avianca for all. We managed to initiate this dialogue to find an agreed and non-judicial solution to this matter, doing the right thing for the company, for its people and for the country, with the purpose of looking forward and growing in a sustainable way with a labor environment based on social dialogue,&#8221; said Adrian Neuhauser, President and CEO of Avianca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This meeting follows several conversations between the company and the pilots, which were aimed at resolving differences and legal processes both nationally and internationally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2022\/02\/avianca-increases-frequencies-to-lima.html\">Avianca increases frequencies to and from Lima (Peru).<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;This event is of immense relevance because it shows that social dialogue is the way to solve even the most difficult events, the most conflictive situations and the greatest differences. As a country we have had multiple conflicts and the only way to resolve them has been to sit down and dialogue to generate conditions that allow us to move forward. I congratulate the parties for having had the courage to ensure that the pilots and their families, the company and the country do well,&#8221; said Bruce Mac Master, President of ANDI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avianca thanked the Ministry of Labor and ACDAC for their willingness to engage in permanent dialogue to reach the agreement, which will be deposited with the Ministry of Labor in order to shield it from third parties and guarantee its compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div
