The Galapagos Islands, almost one thousand kilometers west of Ecuador, will soon have a regular air cargo service. Starting December 19, 2016, a 737-400F will serve the remote islands, pending approval from the Governing Council of Galapagos, which carefully vets transport to protect the islands\u2019 fragile ecosystem.
\nThe service will be managed by Islandscharters, an Ecuadorian air transport operations specialist, using an aircraft chartered from Bogot\u00e1-based AerCaribe.
\nAt present, most freight to the islands moves via ocean, and what air freight there is arrives via regular commercial flights from Ecuador, or on chartered cargo flights.
\nch-aviation reports that the new air service will operate four flights in December, two between Quito International and Seymour, and two between Guayaquil and Seymour. A full timetable will be published in January, 2017.
