Avianca connects San Salvador and Chicago with three weekly flights now

Avianca began its seasonal route between San Salvador and Chicago with three weekly frequencies for the high season of mid-year 2025, as part of its commitment to offer more and better connectivity options for its customers to one of the most important destinations in the United States.

With this direct connection between El Salvador’s International Airport and Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport, the airline makes available to salvadorans 1,080 seats per week in its Airbus A320 aircraft with capacity for 180 passengers.

“This route responds to our firm commitment to deliver greater access and connectivity to the more than 1.4 million salvadorans present in the United States. Connecting directly to Chicago, a city with deep cultural, social, and economic value, will allow us to continue promoting tourism and trade with El Salvador”, said Reyna Mejia, Avianca’s Director of Sales for Central America.
