They would be dumb not to do it as well as jumping into the GUA-TGU route (they only fly GUA-SAP at the moment).

Actually, after GUA - FRS (53), GUA - MEX is the city pair with the most flights (48) from GUA; way more that to Central American destinations. The reason AV (at that time TA) stopped the flight was due to the consolidation of the SAL hub; and with their exit, as well as the demise of MX, other airl...

Any idea if this will this be a tag on to SAL or to SJO?
