South America\u2019s second-largest airline is moving its operations inside Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, shifting to a new terminal ahead of an expansion of its service to Colombia.<\/p>\n
Avianca Airlines announced Thursday, June 25, that it will be switching to FLL\u2019s Terminal 4 from Terminal 1, which is located on the north side.<\/p>\n
The transition is scheduled to take effect Monday, June 29, with the first official flight bound for Bogot\u00e1, Colombia.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe move to Terminal 4 will allow Avianca to centralize its operations in a larger space<\/a> designed to support the airline\u2019s incremental flight activity at FLL,\u201d the company said in a news release, according to the Sun Sentinel.<\/p>\n The move comes weeks before the airline will expand its operations in Florida with direct routes of out FLL to two more Colombian cities: Barranquilla and Cali,<\/a> beginning July 15.<\/p>\n \u201cFort Lauderdale is a key market for Avianca, and this relocation reflects our continued commitment to strengthening our operation in South Florida while offering customers a smoother and more efficient travel experience,\u201d according to the airline.<\/p>\n The Barranquilla route will fly at approximately 4:30 p.m and 10 p.m. The Cali route will run at about 9 p.m. and 1:30 a.m. Avianca also serves Bogot\u00e1 and Medell\u00edn from FLL.<\/p>\n According to airport data, the carrier flew about 16,000 inter<\/a>national flights<\/a> in the month of April, accounting for roughly 0.5% of FLL\u2019s total flight share.<\/p>\n The carrier operates more than 400 weekly flights in the U.S., connecting 14 cities in Latin America with more than 80 destinations across the Americas and Europe, Avianca said in the news release.<\/p>\n Local passengers flying out of FLL after the weekend are advised to check their boarding passes, as all check-in counters and arrival gates will be altered to reflect the transition.<\/p>\n Tickets for the new route are now available through the airline\u2019s website<\/a> and app.<\/p>\n
