Air Europa will have direct flights to both Quito and Guayaquil this summer

Starting in June, Air Europa will introduce direct routes between its hub at Madrid-Barajas Airport and the airports of Guayaquil and Quito. 

Beginning June 24, the airline will operate three weekly flights to each of these cities on a permanent basis. Until then, it will continue to operate its triangular route from Madrid. Air Europa has made more than 78,000 seats available on each of these routes this year—an increase of up to 8% compared to 2024—bringing the total number of seats available to Ecuador to over 157,000. Additionally, thanks to an agreement with Avianca, passengers will have access to domestic connections to Cuenca and Manta, as well as to the islands of Baltra and San Cristóbal in the Galápagos archipelago. Air Europa operates its transatlantic flights with the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
