SATENA announces expansion of routes and frequencies to different regions of Colombia in 2022


February 28, 2022

SATENA Airlines announced the opening of four new routes and an increase in frequencies in several destinations with the intention of strengthening the country's air connectivity in 2022, especially in the most remote regions of the country and thus contribute to their competitiveness. According to SATENA's President, Major General Luis Carlos Córdoba Avendaño, these frequencies will start operating in the second third of the year. "The arrival of two ATR72 aircraft will allow us to have more routes, more frequencies, more destinations, more available seats, and more options to transport cargo", explained Córdoba.

The increase in frequencies will be focused on operations in eastern Colombia, in destinations such as Puerto Carreño, Inírida and Mitú from Bogotá and Villavicencio.

New routes will be opened such as Medellín - Caucasia - Medellín, Tame - Bucaramanga, Bogotá - Puerto Leguízamo and Quibdó - Apartadó. In addition, two routes will be reactivated; Cali - Puerto Asis and Cali - Medellin - Cali, in order to expand the connectivity of the capital of Valle.

On the other hand, several new frequencies will be opened, including eight from Bogota to cities such as Tumaco, Medellin, Quibdó, Aguachica, Villagarzón, Tame, Pitalito, Florencia; two from Medellin to Quibdó and Apartadó; one from Florencia to Puerto Leguízamo and finally Cali to Tumaco.
