Avianca Airlines — South America’s second-largest commercial air carrier — will launch nonstop air service between Las Vegas and San Salvador, El Salvador, in July, the company announced Tuesday.
The nonstop round trip service between Harry Reid International Airport and El Salvador International Airport is scheduled to begin July 15 and operate Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
Avianca, based in Colombia, will use a twin-engine, 180-seat Airbus A320 with a capacity for 180 passengers.
“The Latino community is one of the most important in the United States, so we want to provide the best options to connect with the region,” Rolando Damas, Avianca’s sales director for North America, Central America and the Caribbean, said in a news release.
