Airbus A320neos will be the flight carrier, which comes with approximately 184 seats depending on the passenger cabin configuration. The flight between Cancún and Bogotá will run on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays.

Constanza Olaya Cantor, Vice Minister of Tourism of Colombia told the media, “The the opening of these new routes by Volaris between Mexico and Colombia becomes great news and an opportunity for many more Mexicans to know all the wealth that we have in our country in terms of tourism and vice versa. Likewise, this exchange of tourists will help us to continue strengthening the path of safe economic reactivation throughout Latin America.”

Tickets will be made available from June 23rd and they will be priced from $89.99.
