Colombia’s flag-carrier airline Avianca will invest $473 million to grow its fleet by 16 aircraft as it looks to increase the number of routes on offer, Chief Executive Adrian Neuhauser said on Thursday.Avianca will lease 14 Airbus A320 NEO planes and two A320 CEO planes to push its daily flights on domestic routes up by almost 25%, from 600 to 750.Neuhaser during a press conference in Colombia’s Bogota called the increase of almost 1 million weekly seats “unprecedented growth” in the airline’s history.COLOMBIA ELECTS FORMER REBEL GUSTAVO PETRO TO BECOME COUNTRY’S FIRST LEFTIST PRESIDENT The exterior of the Avianca administrative office is pictured, as officers from Colombia’s attorney general’s office conduct a raid inside, in Bogota, Colombia, on Feb. 12, 2020.
