When Christopher Columbus's flagship, the Santa Maria, ran aground on Haitian reefs in 1492, the crew used its timbers to construct Fort Navidad, the island's earliest European structure. It was later destroyed by Arawak Indians.
Iberia Airlines will increase its passenger transport capacity from Spain to Uruguay by 40% from July 1st, fixed at 210,000 seats per year.
This will establish a daily flight Madrid-Montevideo and Montevideo-Madrid, which will grow from five to seven frequencies weekly.
This growth in passenger transport capacity is accompanied by the renewal of an agreement with the Uruguayan government for the promotion of the South American country as a tourist destination in Europe by Iberia.
This airline from the Iberian Peninsula flies to Montevideo with Airbus A330/200 aircraft, equipped with modern cabins with broad technology and satellite internet connection, with WIFI access.
