Nicholas, good evening. I am very interested in working with you, I could know if there is an e-mail address to send my CV??? Thank you very much
Hello Fernando, I have no contact with Equinoctial.
The minimum capital required to set up an air transport company is Us 16.000 Dollars. the CNAC They cannot have given the concession with a capital of 800 Dollars
Good morning Nicholas , Suddenly you have information on where the offices of the new airline that will operate in Latacunga are Equinoctial Airlines
Hi, Pablo, they don't have offices, at least not yet.
I need to know more information about this airline…Where are the offices and points of sale located? , Public attention, mail etc… If someone can tell me, I'd really appreciate it.….Thank you
Hello Elena, This information cannot be made public yet., but when the time comes they will reveal it. Greetings.
The strange thing is that to date 6/26/17 They don't even have a website., and amazing that with $800 of capital can create an "airline", and they do not own a single plane or plane or toy!!!!
It still raises a few questions for me., but only time will tell if they take off or remain in history as another Ecuadorian airline attempt.
