He also announced that an Airbus 340-300 aircraft will be added to the fleet next November, expanding the airline’s fleet of jets.
In this regard, Velásquez said that the aforementioned plane “is already paid for and should arrive by the third or fourth week of November.” He estimated the acquisition of another three Airbus planes to take care of the international demand.
