Avianca launches new international route between Cartagena and São Paulo

On Tuesday, Avianca inaugurated one of its brand new routes, connecting Cartagena International Airport (CTG) in Colombia with São Paulo Guarulhos International Airport (GRU) in Brazil directly for the first time in history. First announced last year, Avianca began operating today its new route between Cartagena and Sao Paulo, flights AV130 and AV131. This new service has three flights per week, with the airline deploying Airbus A320 family aircraft to operate it. The first leg from Cartagena departs on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, while the return departs on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Gustavo Esusy, Avianca’s Commercial Manager for Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay, said, “Following our commitment to offering more and more point-to-point routes, we begin 2023 inaugurating the São Paulo-Cartagena route, the best way for Brazilians to reach the Colombian Caribbean directly, without stopovers, and without the need for a visa. The objective of an "Avianca for all" is already a reality, according to Esusy: "We are committed to making it possible for more and more Brazilians to visit Colombia's best destinations.”<br/>
