Hi Nicolas. Do you know if the ATR that was left in the country is flying? What company operates it??
Greetings
hello marlon, I tell you that there is no longer any ATR left in Ecuador, Finally they were all sold abroad..
Hi Nicolas. Do you know if the two planes that stayed in the country are operating?? What kind of service are they providing??
hi edwin, if you mean the Embraer 190, both are on land without any use. Your engines are not operational.
It is a great shame to see how part of the Ecuadorian aviation has been dismembered due to nefarious governments in public administration. I was part of Tame and we proudly gave our best to be able to transport thousands of passengers, especially ECUADORIANS.. I'm from Loja and what a great video you shared when you managed TAME VIRTUAL. Regards Nicholas.
Hello John, Thanks for your comment. I thought it appropriate to share the video recorded at the time of Tame Virtual, it was a pleasant experience.
Indeed, the nefarious correismo also annihilated TAME. Regarding the ATR-42-500 Nicolás, Will that Guayaquil corporation take care of two of the planes to make commercial flights?, VIP the only charter? Thanks for your answer
Hi Carlos, for now is what is known, let's wait and see what happens.
Moreno and his dark mantle of disability together with Lasso have been in charge of burying Tame.
Undoubtedly, in the Correa era there was a deficient administration over valuing the expectations of internationalization of the company, coming to have a fleet of 20 aircraft including the A330 unfortunately did not work as expected.
Thanks for your comment.
from the sale of these aircraft, money must be given to return customers who paid for tickets and could not use them due to the liquidation of the airline. There are many affected by the liquidation of the company and travel agencies have had many problems for that reason., before customers
totally agree and support. Although as I read, The order of importance is first to pay state entities and then come the thousands of passengers affected.
A shame, that due to misuse and bad administrators disappear,this one that was an excellent international airline like TAME, I have never been happy to travel on other airlines again, because their service is medium bad to bad, like american, Spirit, Latam, Avianca etc etc, if they had not been presidents Correa, Lenin and Lasso Tame were dominating the space due to the excellent service and facilities they provided to users. bye bye, I will miss you.
Thanks for your comment.
Hi Nicolas
I hope all things going well
