Peruvian airline inaugurates Lima-Havana route
Published on February 10, 2012      Print Version

HAVANA, Cuba (ACN) -- The LAN Peru national airline inaugurated on Thursday a route that will link Lima and Havana, Cuba.

Officials of the tourism ministry said that opening the route will be an A319 aircraft with a capacity of 135 passengers, among them top level executives, and that it will fly three times a week. The new route will accomodate connections from dissimilar destinations -- Latin America and the Caribbean, and particularly Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador and Chile.

LAN Peru is one of the subsidiaries of a larger company, LAN Chile, founded in 1929, and operates a group of companies in those nations. It became LAN Airlines in 2005, with international medium and long range destinations.

Two years ago, it merged with the Brazilian TAM Linhas Aereas, which created LATAM Airlines, the largest aero-commercial consortium in Latin America and one of the largest in the world. The two companies, however, will maintain operations separately.
