TACA Boosts Links to Havana

Posted 20/07/2011

TACA International is to add a second link to Havana, the capital of the Caribbean island of Cuba, next month.  The company already offers flights from Lima, Peru but from August 5 it will inaugurate a three times weekly service from San Salvador, El Salvador.  Just days earlier on August 1, the airline will also boost frequencies on the Lima – Havana route from three to five flights per week.  TACA International is part of the wider Grupo TACA Central American airline alliance and its partner carriers also provide links to Havana.  Costa Rica-based LACSA has a six times weekly link to the Cuban capital from San Jose. 

There are currently no direct links between San Salvador and Havana, although an estimated 4,000 O&D passengers travelled between the two destinations in the past year with more than three quarters flying with Copa Airlines via its regional hub at Tocumen International Airport in Panama City.
