Avior Airlines starts using A340 aircraft again

After undergoing maintenance earlier this year, Avior Airlines' A340-300 aircraft resumed running regularly scheduled services. The aircraft arrived in Venezuela on 26th May and then proceeded to fly a route between Barcelona José Antonio Airport (BLA) and Miami International Airport (MIA), which it will continue to fly until the end of July this year. From 1st August 2018, Avior will use the aircraft to fly between Caracas Simón Bolivar International Airport (CCS) and Benito Juárez International Airport (MEX), Mexico City.

Avior Airlines are looking to add a number of new aircraft to its fleet. The Venezuelan carrier is in talks in bringing in a two more A340s and two more B737400s, which would bring its fleet capacity to 10.

Venezuela's Avior Airlines reiterates Miami-Caracas desire

Avior Airlines (9V, Barcelona José Antonio Anzoategui) has implored the US Department of Transportation (DOT) to revisit its still pending application for access to the Caracas Simón Bolivar-Miami Int'l market in light of SBA Airlines' dormancy. SBA was, until recently, Venezuela's designated carrier on the route.

Avior is currently authorized to run regular passenger flights between Barcelona José Antonio Anzoategui and Miami and sought, in August 2016, to expand that authority to include the Caracas-Miami route.

However, 18 months after the application to the DOT for an amended exemption authority was submitted with no response, Avior has now sought to leverage SBA's suspension of operations to its advantage. 

In its filing to the DOT last week, Avior said it had already been designated to the route by the Venezuelan civil aviation authority (Instituto Nacional de Aeronáutica Civil - INAC) and was now awaiting Washington's consent.

"In an effort to preserve much-needed service, the Government of Venezuela has designated and licensed Avior to provide service to replace the Santa Barbara service that has been terminated," it said. "Avior requests the Department amend its exemption to provide services such as Scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail between Caracas, Venezuela and Miami, Florida, either directly or via intermediate points in other countries, with or without stopovers."

According to the ch-aviation schedules database, Avior currently plies the Caracas-Miami route daily albeit using MD-83 equipment wet-leased from World Atlantic Airlines (WL, Miami Int'l).

At present time, American Airlines (AA, Dallas/Fort Worth) is the only other scheduled passenger carrier active between Miami and Caracas.

Avior Airlines adventures from Caracas to Bogota

Avior Airlines commenced flights between Caracas (CCS) and Bogota (BOG) on 3 October. The carrier will offer a daily service on the 1,024-kilometre airport pair using its 737-400s. According to Flightradar24.com, the inaugural flight encountered a one-hour 12-minute delay, arriving into Bogota at 09:02 instead of the planned 07:50 scheduled timing.

Referring to the operational schedule, it appears that the airline will perform an aircraft switch in Bogota, as the departure time for flights back to Caracas is 07:00, with the arriving aircraft from the Venezuelan capital then operating the carrier’s daily service to Valencia, Venezuela’s third largest city.

The return flight from Valencia arrives back into Bogota at 18:55, showing that the aircraft will night-stop in Bogota. Avior will face direct competition on the Colombia-Venezuela capital connection, with tame already operating the route six times weekly on its E190s.
