Galapagos Airways is a start-up airline in Ecuador and was founded in 2018. The airline is aiming to fly regional destinations including the archipelago. As of July 2021, the airline is still in the process of obtaining its Air Operator Certificate (AOC) before its launch. However, the airline has already planned to fly to a maximum of 10 domestic destinations.
Two primary hub airports including the Seymour Airport (GPS) and San Cristobal Airport (SCY) would be utilized to serve the destinations the airline intends to fly. However, Mariscal Sucre International Airport (UIO) will be its base airport.
