Avianca connects San Andrés with Cali nonstop
The airline seeks to continue promoting the arrival of more tourists to San Andrés together with authorities, unions, promotional entities and other actors in the sector and thus contribute to the recovery of the island
San Andrés is already directly connected to the sky branch. The airline's objective of uniting the regions of Colombia remains firm and taking into account the tourism crisis that the Island is experiencing, as of today Avianca adds this route to its network that will operate seasonally between June and August.
With the takeoff of Avianca flight AV9554, from the Alfonso Bonilla Aragón International Airport, the airline begins the operation of flights that will connect San Andrés with Cali non-stop. This route will operate 8 flights a week on Airbus A320 family aircraft with capacity for up to 180 passengers, with a total offer of around 1,400 weekly seats that will provide more connectivity opportunities for Colombians.
“Avianca has been on the side of San Andrés for decades. Now, in a complex situation like the one the island is experiencing, we are here to continue providing solutions from connectivity and tourism. Our commitment is to continue growing in Colombia and connect every corner of the country and contribute to the continued development of tourism in our country. Welcome to the people of Cali to the most beautiful island in all of Colombia.” said Felipe Andrés Gómez, Avianca's director of institutional relations and sustainability.
“For the Archipelago, Avianca's support in times of air crisis has been essential, both to help evacuate dammed passengers, and in this case, to increase connectivity from key destinations for our tourism such as Cali.
We hope that the route that begins today will be so successful that it will end up needing the increase in frequencies and the permanence for the rest of the semester,” said Everth Julio Hawkins, governor of San Andrés, Providencia and Santa Catalina.
