TACA looks to the future

TACA’s proposed “merger of equals” with Avianca completed this week will create one of the largest airline groupings in Latin America.   The new mega Latin American carrier has also signed a new codeshare agreement with US Airways, which commenced on January 12 2010. With these developments , TACA is poised to build on even stronger brand throughout the Americas.

Currently TACA, which is El Salvador's national carrier, flies under the single TACA brand shared with smaller regional airlines operating in the region. These are: TACA Peru, TACA (El Salvador), Aviateca (Guatemala), NICA (Nicaragua) and LACSA (Costa Rica).

The financial tie-up with Colombia's Avianca is a cost-effective solution that will stimulate demand, improve connectivity and increase TACA's reach throughout the Americas. Avianca and TACA, both carriers will both retain their individual brands and TACA will continue to strengthen its presence at its hubs in Lima (Peru), San Jose (Costa Rica) and San Salvador (El Salvador).

TACA's fleet consists of 30 Airbus 319s, 320s and 321 aircraft plus 8 Embraer E190's In addition, a fleet of 30 turboprops seating between 12 and 50 passengers operate on TACA REGIONAL services.

TACA currently flies to 41 destinations in 22 countries spanning North, Central and South America and the Caribbean, as well as serving nine of the largest cities in the US and Toronto, Canada. TACA REGIONAL complements the airline's international route network, connecting Central America's larger markets to smaller leisure destinations and business centres. TACA also has code-share agreements with Lufthansa, Iberia, United, Avianca, US Airways and Aerosur.
