For now, the return of Air Canada to Quito is moving away

For now, the soon return of direct passenger flights between Toronto and Quito by Air Canada.

it was sunday 9 from December to 2019 when it took offó for the first time in history a direct passenger flight between Ecuador and Canadaá, At that time it marked the beginning of a long-awaited route in what was alsoén one of theñus hereórich for aviationóEcuadorian number in terms of arrival of new airlinesílines and connectivity.

Unfortunately it arrivedó the pandemic and the route it operatedó seasonally the días miércoles, Fridays and Sundays we will not see her return in the near future, at least like thatí lo indicó the airínea (what happens with Air France and GOL remains pending).

Air Canada suspends its operating permitón to Quito

not everything is negative, the airínea maintenanceá are operationóload no. In the país operated by aircraft Boeing 767-300, but as for its operationónumber of passengers, this has been canceled dated 30 august 2022. ¿The motives? the airínea in hearing pública was able to express the following:

…Due to the crisis caused by Covid, operations have been alarmingly reduced toéareas worldwide, and despite the efforts that my client has made, no reactivation has been achieved.óadequate market access to Ecuador, This added to the high costs before the DAC that isá demanding to maintain the operating permitón, and not being clear aboutáWhen is this reactivation going to happen?ón for the passenger sector between Canadaá and Ecuador, the addressón of the company has made the decisionón to cancel the operating permitón, at least until the situationón caused by Covid and other conditions improve…”;

Before this panorama, do not stayá más to wait for conditions to improve, and we mean that the demand más immigration data and statusístatic than the aerosolínea handles put back to Ecuador as an attractive potential market.

let's finally remember, that the aerosolíne of their destinations in the regionón ya reactiveó Lima and Bogotaá, flights to Quito, that at least for now we will not see them operate again, but we are sure that in the future we will see the «Maple Leaf» crossing our skies, but also carryingén passengers.
