I know this is a long name... Avianca is the biggest Airline from Columbia. Their Base is in Barranquilla and the Home Airport is Aeropuerto Eldorado in Bogotá. They have 108 planes with 7 orders (as of March 2023) and their callsign AVIANCA. Avianca was founded on December 5th 1919 and is the second-oldest airline after KLM. Their biggest plane in terms of passenger capacity is the Airbus A330-200, beating the Boeing 787-8 by 2 seats. The smallest plane is the Airbus A319-100.
