  1. Each airline should be left free to progressively increase its flights. For example, in the case of Cuenca, considered that he should let the 100% the frequencies due to the suspension of Aeroregional flights and the liquidation of TAME EP. In the case of Guayaquil and Quito it is different because in that market there is a
    highest flight offer.

    On the other hand, if the flights between Quito and Guayaquil increase until they reach the 50% of total frequencies, that is to say, about five flights per company, The least that would be expected is that the controls are not relaxed due to the number of infections in those two cities.
