- Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Ecuador flight deals.
- Ecuador has two main airports: Mariscal Sucre International Airport (UIO), located in the country's capital, Quito, and Guayaquil's José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport (GYE). UIO is the largest in the country and receives direct flights from Atlanta (ATL) and Miami (MIA), while GYE serves Miami and New York (JFK).
- Mariscal Sucre International Airport, about 11 miles east of Quito, is the largest hub for LATAM Ecuador and Avianca Ecuador. For connections to other regions in Ecuador from UIO, consider flying Avianca or LATAM airline flights.
- When flying into Ecuador from the U.S., expect to land in either of these two major airports. If you need to access other parts of the country, you can fly into the other smaller airports after stopping at the main airports.
- Seymour Galapagos Ecological Airport (GPS) in Ecuador is the first airport globally to be environmentally sustainable. The airport draws its energy from the wind and the sun. You can visit the airport when touring Ecuador.
- If you plan to spend ample time on Ecuador's coast to the south in places like Loja and Cuenca, consider flying into the Guayaquil airport, GYE, which connects to southern Ecuador.
- When you’re booking your flight to Ecuador, you’ll have several different arrival points to choose from. The two main international airports in Ecuador are José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport (GYE) in Guayaquil and Mariscal Sucre International Airport (UIO) in the country’s capital city of Quito. Flights from the US are also available to arrive in smaller airports after stopping through either Quito or Guayaquil.
- When you visit Ecuador, you won’t have to worry about dealing with exchange rates. Ecuador’s main currency is the US dollar, which saves American tourists the hassle of obtaining another currency. American debit and credit cards are widely accepted throughout the bigger cities, but it is wise to have cash on hand if you’ll be exploring small towns and remote areas.
- For those looking to save money on transportation, getting around Ecuador can be easily accomplished by using the dense network of local and regional buses. Quito and Guayaquil have bus systems that can take you throughout the entire city, and longer-distance buses can take you to other parts of the country and up into the Andes Mountains.
- Train travel is another option for tourists in Ecuador, as the railway system is largely geared towards taking visitors on day trips. If, like many visiting Ecuador, you fly into Quito, you can take a popular day trip via train from Quito to the Area Nacional de Recreación El Boliche.
- If you’re traveling throughout the Galapagos Islands, there are few options for getting around without booking flights to the small, domestic airports on some of the larger islands. Multi-island tours are available to book; or, if you’re more of an independent traveler, you can take a ferry between islands.

Airline reviews
Pros: "Good crew"
Cons: "No food for a seven hour flight to Ecuador?? Insane"
Pros: "Good crew"
Cons: "No food for a seven hour flight to Ecuador?? Insane"
Cons: "JetBlue is awful. TVs don’t work. Staff isn’t friendly"
Pros: "Yes the crew was great."
Cons: "It was a short 2.5 hr flight. Jet blue provided packaged snacks and a soft drink at no additional charge. Other airlines charge for everything. A carry on and a handbag were also allowed which others don't. The seats are leather and have more room. Seems Jet Blue is the last one of those traditional airlines giving more for your money. Thank you Jet Blue ! I am sold."
Pros: "The crew was great and professional."
Cons: "No complaints. Everything was perfect from the boarding process to disembarking."
Pros: "Tv control broken with wires coming out of the arm rest in all seats of the same row."
Pros: "The price on ticket"
Cons: "Improve in flight entertainment . The plane had screens that did not work or had problems with the audio jack . Either they make a WORKING app for in flight entertainment- OR fix the devices of the plane. The plane was boarded one hour late at least, that was very annoying ."
Pros: "Crew was courteous and gave constant updates in regards to any delays."
Cons: "Flight was delayed and there was congestion prior to take off. Not sure there was anything that could’ve been done."
Cons: "food options could improve, especially since the area around the gate doesn't have very nice food venues. More movie options could help as well, maybe allowing people to use their devices to watch movies. Maybe that is available already but it wasn't highlighted"
Cons: "Flight was 3 1/2 hours delayed. In-flight entertainment system didn’t function. They didn’t perform a beverage/snack service. Very poor overall. Disappointing."
Pros: "Crew was very pleasant and flight was on time."
Cons: "The tray tables were all broken and hinging in my row. The aux port for headphones needs to be updated to support new types of headphones, like Bluetooth or lightning connection."
Cons: "Turn on the lights before landing graduallyb- noone likes bright fast - too nasty;"
Cons: "The boarding process was awful. The gate agent was extremely rude - was shocked she was representing Delta. There was police on board arresting two passengers and crew was not saying anything."
Pros: "The crew is always smiling and ready to help you and I really like that."
Pros: "It’s nice to be in a plane fitted with modern conveniences. Great entertainment options."

Pros: "I loved being upgraded to first class and the crew was so attentive."
Cons: "Nothing, glad this was a better experience than the trip to Miami."
Pros: "The crew was communicative and courteous."
Cons: "There was a flight delay in LAX due to a maintenance issue. The captain and crew informed us before we boarded the plane which was excellent. However, they could not figure out what was wrong with the planed and delayed the boarding for another 3 hours, putting our 1900 departure time to 2100."
Cons: "The flight is operated by Air France and I would have preferred Delta. It was extremely cramped but the food was excellent and it was on time"

Pros: "Business class. Seat was comfy. Reclined quite a bit. Food was great. Staff was not very happy or helpful tho compared to other business class flights I’ve done. Movie selection was not good at all. Very dated. 4 new releases."
Cons: "Staff was not very happy or helpful tho compared to other business class flights I’ve done. Movie selection was not good at all. Very dated. 4 new releases."
Cons: "They tend to be very sensationalist with the people sitting on the exit road. It would be nice to have some food for the people that are vegetarian, something; just don’t ignore them and continue walking. This happened in both flights. Not even chips. Nothing."
Pros: "The entertainment options. Liked the sandwich as well"
Cons: "The seats could be a bit more comfortable, and adding veggies to their sandwiches"

Cons: "When the flight was delayed, we would’ve like to have a better explanation of what was happening"
Pros: "The cree was very accommodating. The comfort level was adequate. The food was not very good."

Cons: "The aircraft needs better maintenance. My table was tilted and the seatbelt was twisted"

Cons: "Bogotá Avianca baggage handling. It took 45 minutes to get the bags"
Cons: "Avianca revised my itinerary 7 times while I was trying to enjoy my vacation generating severe stress to the point where I could not sleep or eat properly. I spent over 150mins of my once in a lifetime Galápagos vacation dealing w/ Avianca’s useless customer service over the phone trying to resolve"
Cons: "Very impressed with Avianca. They have food and free movies/TV on board and a plug for my phone to charge. Boarding was a little crazy since the area was so small and hard to tell where the line was but overall great compared to American Airlines"
Cons: "Our trip was from NY to Cartagena connecting to Medellin. Our original lay over was suppose to be for 2 hours it became 7 hours!!! I missed the time in renting my car. That office closed at 8pm We also missed most of the remaining day to our day at the hotel Los Recuerdos in Guatape. Just awful!!"
It's my first time on Eurowings and it didn't meet the standards am used to from lufthansa.
Lufthansa personel and cre were proffesional. They try to help as much as they can.
Dear Lufthansa, thank you for the excellent flight. We arrived early which really helped us with our connection. Crew was so nice!
Pros: "The incoming pilot to Nice parked at the wrong gate and apparently, once parked, it could not be moved. So the airport had to scramble buses which made the flight depart more than an hour late. We had a 50-minute layover and Lufthansa did not hold the plane. So we got home a day late."
Cons: "They could have left Nice on time, or held the plane for us in Munich."
Pros: "The flight crew & the flight itself was great."
Cons: "The flight was delayed by 4 hours. Not only did I miss my connecting flight, but I also missed my rescheduled flight. I had to wait another 7 hours in the airport waiting for a flight. And due to this I missed an important meeting."
Cons: "Im tall and couldn’t affort the better spaced seats so I was pretty cramped on most flights and I paid over $200 to even get those, just so my wife and I could sit together."
Pros: "All was fine on the flight."
Cons: "The woman at the "Groups" check in area on 4/20 Saturday morning had the personality of a cactus needle. She was condescending and sent us on a wild goose chase to pay for our bags. Why didn't she just send us to that area in the first place to take care of the check in process at the same place?"
Pros: "Horrible seating, boarding was a mess, not sure what flight to get on!!"
Cons: "Don't fly United"
Pros: "Yes, seat good."
Cons: "There were delays and not good food. No veggie option."
Pros: "The time between flights was good and the trip was very nice."
Cons: "Both trips were nice"
