JetSMART Peru requests to Colombian Authorities international routes

JetSMART Peru has applied to the Civil Aeronautics under to operate international passenger, cargo and mail services to Colombia with fifth freedom of the air on the following routes:

  • Lima (LIM) – Bogota (BOG) – Lima (LIM).
  • Lima (LIM) – Medellin (MDE) – Lima (LIM).
  • Lima (LIM) – Cali (CLO) – Lima (LIM).
  • Lima (LIM) – Cartagena (CTG) – Lima (LIM).
  • Lima (LIM) – Pereira (PEI) – Lima (LIM).
  • Lima (LIM) – San Andres (ADZ) – Lima (LIM).
  • Lima (LIM) – Cucuta (CUC) – Lima (LIM).
  • Arequipa (AQP) – Bogota (BOG) – Arequipa (AQP).
  • Arequipa (AQP) – Cartagena (CTG) – Arequipa (AQP).
  • Arequipa (AQP) – Medellin (MDE) – Arequipa (AQP).
  • Arequipa (AQP) – Cali (CLO) – Arequipa (AQP).
  • Cuzco (CUZ) – Bogota (BOG) – Cuzco (CUZ).

The airline proposes to operate these routes on Airbus A320neo aircraft and with a schedule of 7 weekly flights. Previously, the low cost submitted a request to the Peruvian Civil Aviation Authority (DGAC) to expand its international offer in South American countries, including Colombia, and recently received authorization to operate these services.

If these services materialize, JetSMART Peru on most of the routes from the Peruvian capital to the main Colombian cities would have to compete with legacy operators such as Avianca and LATAM Airlines, as well as other low-cost airlines such as Wingo and VIVA.

In the case of Arequipa (AQP), the operator would be the only company to connect Rodriguez Ballon International Airport (AQP) with Colombia, thus reinforcing air connectivity to secondary cities in Peru. JetSMART Chile currently offers non-stop service between Santiago (SCL) and Arequipa (AQP).

It could also be the only air operator to connect Pereira (PEI), San Andres (ADZ) and Cúcuta (CUC) with Peru with non-stop flights.

According to data obtained by Peru’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGAC), 878,450 passengers flew between Peru and Colombia. Colombia is Peru’s third largest international market, behind only Chile and the United States.
