Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas Sets Flight Hours Record with 21,061 in 2025, Up 17% from Prior Year

Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas achieved a record 21,061 flight hours in 2025, marking a 17% increase over 2024.

This milestone underscores the carrier’s accelerated expansion across regular, charter, and ACMI operations.

Regular routes between Spain and Latin America drove 13,800 hours, a 6% rise that bolsters connectivity to key markets like Bogotá, Cartagena, Lima, and Caracas.

Charter and ACMI segments surged 45% to 7,347 hours, highlighting Plus Ultra’s growing role in wet-leasing and specialized services.

Operations Director Alejandro Casado attributed the gains to five years of steady growth, fueled by Airbus A330 fleet additions and business diversification.

This operational intensity positions Plus Ultra for further route development, including a planned spring 2026 launch of twice-weekly Madrid-Buenos Aires flights, expanding to four weekly by July.

The record reflects strengthened market presence in Latin America, where demand supports higher utilization rates and revenue potential amid fleet modernization.
