With this decision, the airline turns the capital of Santander into its third-largest city in terms of operational volume, only behind Bogot\u00e1 and Medell\u00edn, strengthening the role of Palonegro International Airport as a key hub for the country&#8217;s northeast region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The announcement includes making nearly 300,000 seats available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Four New Routes and a More Robust Network from Palonegro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Domestic Expansion: More Direct Connections, Fewer Layovers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting in March, Wingo will begin operations on three key national routes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Bucaramanga &#8212; Medell\u00edn<\/strong>, starting Monday, March 16, with three weekly frequencies (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) in the morning.

It will have two weekly frequencies (Wednesday and Saturday), with fares available from USD 116 per leg, including taxes and fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is Wingo&#8217;s first direct international operation from Bucaramanga and responds to a joint strategy to stimulate tourist traffic between Colombia and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An Operation Leveraged by Regional Alliances<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The announcement was made with the support of key local ecosystem players. Present were the Bucaramanga Chamber of Commerce, the promotion agency Destino Santander, and the airport operator Aeropuertos de Oriente.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Juan Carlos Rinc\u00f3n, Executive President of the Bucaramanga Chamber of Commerce, highlighted the economic impact of expanding the air network, noting that more direct routes translate to more tourism, more business, and greater regional competitiveness\u2014the result of effective coordination between the public and private sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Along the same lines, Nelson Rodr\u00edguez Cruz, Manager of Aeropuertos de Oriente S.A.S., stated that Wingo&#8217;s expansion strengthens the connectivity of the department and its metropolitan area and helps position Palonegro Airport as an increasingly attractive asset for airlines and passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking from Bucaramanga, Wingo&#8217;s CEO, Eduardo Lombana, emphasized that this expansion aligns with the airline&#8217;s purpose of strengthening regional air connectivity: &#8220;Starting in March, Wingo will connect Bucaramanga directly to six destinations: five domestic and, for the first time, Aruba on a seasonal basis. We are advancing in our purpose of facilitating tourism and business travel, making movement within the country and to the Caribbean simpler and more accessible.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is worth noting that Wingo already operated from Bucaramanga to Bogot\u00e1 and Santa Marta. Starting in March, the route to the Colombian capital will be reinforced from four to six weekly frequencies, operating every day except Saturdays, further consolidating the airline&#8217;s presence in the local market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Collectively, Wingo&#8217;s move reinforces a clear trend in the Colombian market: the growth of regional aviation as an engine for economic and tourism development, with low-cost schemes and direct routes as the main protagonists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div
