According to what was announced a few days ago, the system is to apply to the already existing segmentation in terms of rates, different degrees of benefits.

For example, the segment identified as Promo, which is the lowest of the tariff scale, allows the pbadenger to board the aircraft with only one piece of hand luggage, can not choose a seat and can not change the date of the trip.

In this case, as indicated by the airlines, the shipment of luggage in the cargo hold or modification of the date will result in an additional cost, intended to prevent the pbadenger from paying what he does not do not want to use.

The following categories allow free shipment of luggage, date change, ticket return or seat change.

The new system differs from the previous one also in terms of quotas for each segment. Until now, the categories had specific quotas and once they were exhausted, it was impossible to get a ticket with this cost. Now, they pointed out that as long as there was room in the aircraft, the lowest segment (Promo) was accessible, which established direct competition with low cost airlines.

The segments will be: Promo, Base, Plus and Flex for economy cabs; Club Economy for cabotage companies and Cóndor Promo Club and Club Cóndor for international cabins. In any case, the pbadenger will always be able to choose the services he wants to rent.

The Aerolíneas Plus Gold and Platinum members will continue to benefit from the Elite category advantage, so that they will always be able to carry extra baggage on all their flights, regardless of the franchise under which they will have bought or exchanged the same fare. .
