Under the leadership of Marina Colunga, Commercial Director for Latin America, Iberia has announced several major initiatives aimed at increasing its flight frequencies to the region&#8217;s main markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00a0<strong>Expansion in Peru: A Historic Record in Sight<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most significant announcements concerns <strong>Peru<\/strong>. Although this market is not traditionally seen as an aviation hub, Iberia plans to break a record in 2024 by consolidating <strong>13 weekly frequencies<\/strong>. This significant increase reflects the growing importance of Peru in the airline&#8217;s strategy. <strong>Marina Colunga<\/strong> stressed that this development is a response to increased demand and <strong>a strategy to strengthen connectivity between Peru and Europe<\/strong>, making Lima a key hub for transatlantic flights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Growth in Brazil and Chile: markets in full expansion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Brazil<\/strong> remains one of Iberia&#8217;s most important markets in Latin America. The airline has intensified its operations, reaching <strong>up to 14 weekly frequencies to S\u00e3o Paulo and Rio de Janeiro<\/strong>, more than any other country in the region. This expansion is part of a wider strategy of continued growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <strong>Chile<\/strong>, Iberia aims to end 2024 with <strong>11 weekly frequencies<\/strong>. The airline is also focusing on improving in-flight comfort and punctuality, which is essential for routes as long as those between Santiago and Madrid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Our article: <a href=\"https:\/\/test.visit-latin-america.com\/increasing-passenger-traffic-in-latin-america-significant-growth-in-2024\/?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Strong growth in passenger traffic in Latin America and the Caribbean<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Diversification in Latin America: a global commitment<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to <strong>Peru<\/strong>, <strong>Brazil<\/strong> and <strong>Chile<\/strong>, Iberia has also strengthened its operations in Ecuador, with flights to two cities, as well as in several other Central and South American countries, including <strong>Argentina<\/strong>, <strong>Uruguay<\/strong>, <strong>Venezuela<\/strong> and the <strong>Dominican Republic<\/strong>. As for the Mexican, Colombian and Argentinean markets, which are among the most successful for the airline, it will continue to invest in modernising its fleet and improving its services to maintain this growth dynamic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2024, Iberia expects to carry around 5.3 million passengers in Latin America, <strong>an increase of 16.4% on the previous year<\/strong>. The Spanish airline&#8217;s ambitions in Latin America are clear: to consolidate its position as the region&#8217;s air transport leader, while strengthening its global connectivity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iberia strengthens its presence in Latin America with new flight frequencies, enhancing connections between Europe and this vibrant region<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":225591,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8183],"tags":[15810,7933,8045,7750,8087,9100,12657,7547,8415,7720,15811,8637,13394,10038,15812,15813,15766,9218,15814,15815,15816,15817,7556,7558,8237,15818,8098,10198,8316,7948,7566,7567,8247,8104],"class_list":["post-227442","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latam-news-en","tag-air-hubs","tag-air-services","tag-air-transport","tag-amerique-latine-3","tag-argentina","tag-aviation-2","tag-aviation-strategy","tag-brazil","tag-chile-2","tag-colombia-2","tag-connectivite-en","tag-connectivity","tag-dominican-republic","tag-emerging-markets","tag-fleet-modernisation","tag-flight-frequencies","tag-global-aviation","tag-iberia-2","tag-iberia-expansion","tag-iberia-flights","tag-iberia-growth","tag-iberia-leadership","tag-latam-2","tag-latin-america","tag-lima","tag-marina-colunga-en","tag-mexico-2","tag-passengers","tag-peru","tag-rio-de-janeiro-2","tag-santiago-2","tag-sao-paulo-2","tag-uruguay","tag-venezuela-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/227442","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=227442"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/227442\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":232884,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/227442\/revisions\/232884"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/225591"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=227442"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=227442"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=227442"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
