Avianca Cargo adds Ecuador as a new key point in its cargo service to Miami, operating on capacity provided by Amazon Air Cargo, effective March 2026. This service is part of the commercial relationship both companies have maintained since 2025, under different arrangements including charter flights and capacity agreements. In this context, Ecuador becomes the second market where Avianca Cargo operates services utilizing capacity provided by Amazon Air Cargo.
"Since we began our commercial relationship with Amazon Air Cargo in 2025, with the Bogotá–Miami operation, we have been building a solid, long-term relationship. Ecuador's addition to this service is a key milestone in our value proposition for exporters, particularly in the perishables segment, through a more robust, reliable operation aligned with their logistics needs," said Diogo Elías, CEO of Avianca Cargo.
Ecuador's inclusion responds to growing demand from the export sector, particularly during key seasons such as Mother's Day, when flower shipment volumes to the U.S. market increase significantly. This initiative complements Avianca Cargo's regular and sustained operation in the country, expanding available capacity and strengthening logistics options for exporters.
The operation is further supported by Quiport, the concessionaire responsible for the administration and operation of Quito's Mariscal Sucre International Airport, whose infrastructure and capabilities create an attractive environment for cargo carriers, enable the efficient handling of perishable freight, and reinforce its role as a strategic hub for regional exports.
"We are proud to be facilitators of initiatives like this one. Our commitment is clear: to keep developing modern, efficient, and reliable infrastructure that allows Quito to continue attracting cargo airlines that boost our exports. This new service is a testament to the confidence that world-class international players place in our airport, our city, and our country," said Ramón Miró, President and CEO of Quiport.
Amazon Air Cargo provides air lift capacity for this service, supporting Avianca Cargo's operation within the trade corridor between Ecuador and the United States.
“Amazon Air Cargo is proud to provide lift capacity that enables Avianca Cargo's expansion in Ecuador. Our role is focused on supporting international air cargo operations that connect Ecuador's export economy with U.S. markets. We're pleased to see this service launch and look forward to supporting Avianca Cargo's customers on this important trade corridor” said Kes Nielsen, Director of Amazon Air Cargo.
