One of Paraguay’s attractions is undoubtedly its remoteness. But for those of us who like to fly in and out more or less regularly, the last few years have been difficult. Since Varig’s bankruptcy and American Airlines stopping their service, we were left with a TAM monopoly and then later some GOL connections via Curitiba.
Things however are looking up. Pluna started service to Montevideo earlier this year. Even better however, next month TACA will start a direct flight route from Asuncion to Lima, hubbing in to TACA’s wide network with connections to South, Central and North America.
I’m also looking forward to the new Copa flight from Panama to Santa Cruz de la Sierra in Bolivia, that will hopefully connect to flights to Asuncion. That should reduce travel time significantly between Panama and Paraguay.
