Washington, D.C.-area travelers will have a new option to South America beginning in November.
Boliviana de Aviacion, the state-owned flag carrier of Bolivia, will launch twice-weekly flights from its home-country base at Viru Viru International Airport (VVI) in Santa Cruz to Washington's Dulles International Airport (IAD) with a stop at Panama City's Tocumen International Airport (PTY) on Nov. 4. The flights will operate on Tuesdays and Thursdays through Feb. 24, and resume from June 1 until Aug. 31, 2026.
Boliviana will fly a Boeing 737-800 on the route.
