Guatemala's flag carrier TagAirlines appointed AirlinePros as its General Sales Agent (GSA) in Canada. In this way, AirlinePros will be responsible for the airline's marketing and sales, trade promotion activities and customer service in the Canadian market. This is in addition to the Billing and Settlement Plan Coordination Program (BSP, registration, billing and reconciliation scheme that IATA has in each country to regulate agency sales) that AirlinePros already provides to the airline in Canada. It should be noted that AirlinePros is also a GSA of TagAirlines in the United States.
“We have a long-standing relationship with AirlinePros in the United States,” said Julio Gamero, CEO of TAagAirlines. “As the flag carrier of Guatemala and the Mundo Maya, we are going through a new era to strengthen our services, our air fleet and fly to new destinations. We are pleased to have the experience, dedication and resources of a leading GSA like AirlinePros,” he noted.
"TagAirlines has maintained a firm commitment to air connectivity and business development in Central America for more than 60 years," said Shreyas Nanavati, AirlinePros Deputy General Manager. “There is a lot of collaborative development and tourism between Guatemala and Canada, with tourists traveling between the two countries for work, leisure and business in all productive sectors. We will be able to build a strong profile for TagAirlines in the Canadian market and improve traffic to this land of great attractions and Mayan heritage,” he commented. TAG recently received a new ATR 72, the second of its kind that will allow it to grow its air fleet, in line with the operator's goal of expanding connectivity in Central America and Mexico.
TagAirlines is a 100 percent Guatemalan company that for 60 years has maintained a firm commitment to air connectivity and economic development. The company is experiencing a new era that includes the modernization of its fleet with modern ATR 72 aircraft, considered the most modern and efficient of its type, which will allow it to fly to more destinations.
