Colombia is a massively varied country when it comes to scenery and airports, from the challenging mountain airport of Bogota, to amazing island airports of San Andrés and Providencia. It’s well worth checking out in Infinite Flight!

@Mort what would you do if Sun Country announced Cali flights :eyes:

I can see that happening since tourism is pretty big, if not than Medellin or Cartagena for sure

Very brave cameraman.

I would 110% go. I definitely see a costal city like Cartagena or maybe Barranquilla (not sure how big the tourism industry is there) getting their service. It’s not that much of a stretch, since Barranquilla is actually like 100 miles closer to Minneapolis than Aruba, which they fly to. I think Cali would be too far for their 737-800s - not sure if the 739s could do it either.

Yeah, it’s around 3 hours and a half hours between MSP and MIA and an extra 3 hours and 15 minutes between MIA and CLO. But I did put this route in sim brief and it didn’t say anything about this route exceeding its range

This is why this needs to exist :backhand_index_pointing_down:

That would be really epic. They do seem to want to go to South America, and Colombia seems like the most obvious place to start (no offense Venezuela, but I feel like most people don’t want to vacation there).

That livery is actually amazing on the MAX.

I should have come down and visited.

They do have nice places like Maracaibo and Porlamar but Venezuela’s travel advisory is a level 4 and American (the last US airline serving Venezuela) pulled out in March 2019 and it’s unlikely they’ll (or anybody) return especially with the travel ban Trump proposed.

I’m sure there’s amazing places to visit and a rich culture, but I agree that the political situation is just too unstable right now.
