Chile’s Sky Airline outlines international ambitions for the Americas

South America airline group Sky took a major step in 2019 with the establishment of a new subsidiary in Peru, and through its own resolve and with the help of market exits by other Peruvian domestic competitors, in less than a year of operations Sky has become the third largest domestic operator in Peru based on passengers carried.

Now that Sky is firmly entrenched in Peru's domestic market, the airline is examining new international routes and is planning to introduce service from Lima to Cancún and Punta Cana in Apr-2020. The airline has also set its sights on serving the US from Lima, and hopes to inaugurate flights to Miami later in 2020.

Sky's international ambitions outside South America are only just beginning, and once the airline begins taking delivery of its AirbusA321XLR narrowbody aircraft, it will be able use those jets to reach further into North and Central America and points into the Caribbean from its major bases in Lima and Santiago.
