The airline now flies to 16 designations throughout the South American continent and aims to increase capacity by 8.5 percent in 2019 by adding three new routes and increasing capacity in existing markets.Starting June 1, the Spanish carrier will begin flying between its base in Madrid to Puerto Iguazu, Argentina and Medellin, Colombia with twice and three times weekly frequencies, respectively, while June 3 will see the airline fly to Panama City five times weekly. The routes further connect Spain with Latin America, both connected by a shared culture and language, across both North and South America.The new incorporations of the type will help the carrier set pace for their fierce expansion plans in the region and continue to chase after Iberia, its close rival in the segment and a long-standing market leader between Europe and Latin America.

  • Despegar.com

As the leading online travel agent (OTA) in Latin America, Despegar.com has experienced a share price decline of approximately 50% over the past twelve months. However, despite investor disinterest in Despegar.com, the company continues to generate double-digit volume growth. Founded in 1999, Despegar operates under one primary brand, Despegar.com, which means “to take off” in Spanish.  A Latin American version of Expedia, Despegar offers airline tickets, hotels, bus tickets, car rentals, vacation packages, payment options, and other travel-related products and services.  Unfortunately for Despegar investors, macroeconomic turbulence swept across Latin America in 2018, depressing economic growth and causing currency declines across the region. As a result, travel volumes have been contracting. For all of these reasons, Despegar’s share price has declined by more than 55% since its 2018 high.
