ORANJESTAD – Aruba Airport Authority N.V. (AAA) is thrilled to announce that Wingo, a renowned low-cost carrier, launched its highly anticipated new route that connects Cali, Colombia (CLO) to Aruba.
The inaugural event, which took place on July 5th, 2023, not only represented a significant milestone for Aruba Airport and Wingo, but also served as a catalyst for further enhancing tourism and nurturing connections with the local community in both destinations.
The festivities started with the disembarking passengers on the arriving flight receiving a warm welcome by the Aruba Airport team while being entertained by local carnival dancers.
The official inaugural event ceremony was held in the AAA Arrival VIP room, attended by government officials, aviation executives, and esteemed guests. Among the distinguished attendees were Aruba’s Minister of Tourism & Public Health, Mr. Danguillaume Oduber, Mr. Jorge Jimenez, Sales and Distribution Director of Wingo, Ms. Ronella Croes, CEO ATA, and Mr. Joost Meijs, CEO AAA. The event concluded with the traditional ribbon and cake-cutting ceremony, symbolizing the official commencement of operations on this new route.

Cali marks the carrier’s third city in Colombia, servicing the Bogota, Medellin, and now also the Cali route.
