The battle for control of Viva goes far beyond Avianca, Jetsmart & Latam. Here are some of the key players

Arajet is one of the upstart low cost airlines disrupting the Colombian passenger aviation market, but their ambitions go far beyond South America.

Today the low-cost airline is rolling out premium hot menu items available for pre-order.

With the opening of this route to the Colombian island tourist destination, Copa Airlines services 10 destinations in Colombia.

The investment, said to be $70 million USD of convertible credit, brings the airline into proximity with both bankrupt Colombian carrier Avianca and Mexican carrier Volaris.

The three weekly redeye flights will begin December 6th and tickets are on sale now. Cúcuta is Colombia's largest city on the Venezuelan border. The airport code is CUC.

Along with Pereira and Manizales, Armenia is part of the Colombian “Eje Cafetero” (coffee axis), and its many coffee farms have become international tourist attractions. There are even coffee-themed and agriculture themed amusement parks nearby.

So far, Wingo, which flies between 28 cities in 11 countries, has not publicized new routes from Panamá.

With these new twice weekly flights, Wingo will now operate four direct routes from Medellín, the other destinations being Cancún, Bogotá and México City.

Copa has relaunched international flights from Medellín, Cali, Cartagena & Bogotá to its Panamá City hub and from there, other international destinations.
