LAN Ecuador is an airline based in Quito, Ecuador. It operates scheduled passenger services from Quito and Guayaquil.
Contents |
The airline was established in July 2002 and started operations on 28 April 2003. It is owned by Translloyd (55%) and of the chilean airline LAN Airlines (45%).
LAN Ecuador operates the following services (at January 2005):
- Domestic scheduled destinations: Lan Ecuador flies internationally from both Guayaquil and Quito, but does not offer domestic flying between these cities unless connecting from an international flight.
- International scheduled destinations: Buenos Aires, Madrid, Miami, New York.
All flights are operated with Chile-registered aircraft by LAN.
LAN Ecuador does not have aircraft registered in its own name, but it uses 767-300 aircraft from LAN which by the early 2007 will have full-flat 180-degree recline, which is available from only five companies in the world, offering greater comfort for sleeping in a completely full-flat horizontal position. Down comforters and soft pillows will create a true bed experience, and dividing panels between seats will offer maximum privacy during the flight. Also the inflight entertainment will also reach a superior level with larger 15.4-inch individual video monitors that offer better resolution and an updated audio-visual content with an audio and video on demand system that allows passengers to choose from eight films and 20 short programs with the ability to fast-forward, rewind or pause selected films.
