Venezuelan media, after the start of operations of the aerolíVenezuelan flag between Porlamar – Margarita Island Santiago Mari Caribbean International Airportñor and Panamaá Tocúmen, They commented that during that press conference, Conviasa indicatedó expansion plansón that tenderáfrom this paradiseíhere island.

Creating a HUB on Margarita Island, Conviasa plans to expand its operations to Lima, Buenos Aires and Guayaquil or Quito. Sayún se indicó, the order of opening the routes will beífirst Lima, followed by Quito or Guayaquil and followed by Buenos Aires, where they stopped flying 3 months agoás.

Although it was indicatedó that the intentionón of the aerolínea is to fly to all these destinations with its fleet of Embraer 190LR cl aircraftásick, of which have 15, but 5 Eastán stored due to lack of budget to fly them.  Despite the intentionóstop flying with these planes, to autonomousíone of them is restricted, so direct flights can onlyíto go to Lima, Quito or Guayaquil, while for Buenos Aires, tenderíeven to make a stopover, that possibly, dada la operationócurrent n of the aerolínea, couldíto be in Manaus, Brazil or directly in Lima, whatever the case and stop, I won't be able toán be direct, since it exceeds the 2,450 miles náuticas of autonomousía.

Conviasa flights to Ecuador

La operationón of Conviasa – Venezuelan Consortium of Aeron Industriesáutics and Services Aéprisoners to Ecuador is not new. In the AñO 2011 a 15 August and for a short period, the airíNea offered.ó flights between Caracas and Guayaquil, back then flying with the clácheap Boeing airplanes 737-200 «chanchitos». Spaghettién, There have been several opportunities where the airlineínea has indicated his intentionón to return to Ecuador, until now, without it being concrete.

Por el corto periodo de operationón, the airínea was flying from Caracas to Guayaquil at 18:30 and returning from Guayaquil at 09:00 of díto next with a promotional cost of $376 dóhomes. La operationón was very short and only a few flights were made, which later, hornbeamíhave been suspended due to overflight permit problems in Colombia and thereí That's when Tame startedó to operate those flights in the name of Conviasa until the 16 September of that same 2011, after the Embraer accident at the Antiguo Mariscal Sucre in Quito 190 de Tame HC-CEZ, that operation was definitively suspendedón.

Equally, Conviasa Embraer planes 190, They are seen quite regularly in Ecuador, mainly in Quito, where they fly so chárter with delegations of the Venezuelan Government, spaghettién operating for oil companies or as an avión Presidential of Venezuela for appointments of leaders that take place in the countryís.

The new proposal is to fly from one or not to say, the más turnístic destination of Venezuela, Margarita Island. Yes OK, details of frequencies and schedules are not known, informationóUnofficial information indicates that these mayían iniciar próximly, this will beíto from the 15 of November. Given the destiny, the airíneed to beílooking for the transportation of tourists and alliances with travel agencies and for this same issue, one can speculate that the frequencies may not beían más de 4 weekly given the origin and populationóMargaret's n, although it could beíto feed the route from other airline destinationsínea.

Despite the promptness of this possible start, in records públic operations requests no request from the air force has been foundíline to fly to Quito or Guayaquil, not even on a regular basis, ni chárter. Another chance, is that the aerosolínever aún maintain an operating permitón active and renewed since 2015 and it has not been published.

Anyway, the way mábe prompt with what Conviasa will be able toíto fly to Ecuador is under the modality chárter, whose permissions are generally más flexible and rárequests to get.
