28 Oct 2016 Cochabamba>Medellin 2.816km 4h27m

In early November the aircraft carried the Argentine squad from Buenos Aires to Belo Horizonte and back for a game against Brazil, 2,217km. The flight north took 4h4m and the return, 3h29m
I would take that with a pinch of salt. The flight on 22 August is reported to have departed Santa Cruz at 8h37 and landed exactly an hour and a half later at Cobijas, presumably for fuel.
