PLUNA

Any information about this airline? Experiences? Chairs look a bit weak on airliners.net photos...

Just interested. Flight on the 767-300ER to Madrid.

Thank you

Pua Fleet

Hi TP !

PLUNA is a joint ventura 25 % uruguayan state, 75 % private.

Small company for small country. Clean accidents record. (I mean at least serious accidents, in other words no crashes)

Fleet:

1 B763ER Used mainly in MVD-MAD route. Leased
1 B757 Used? No idea. Leased
3 B732 Owned by Pluna
1 B732 Leased
1 B733 Leased

Now 2 CRJ900ER and waiting for more, guess 5.

Routes

MDV to GRU, SCL, AEP, PDP, GIG, MAD.

webpage: flypluna.com.uy

Regards

Mate

I am open to correction but I think they had or at least planned to have a most interesting route from Montevideo to Madrid via either Recife or Fortaleza in Brazil and Tenerifte (TFN) to Madrid with with a Boeing 757. What a flight! Would love to fly to MVD on such a flight, sounds like a great place.

Oh well, we can dream!

The B767 was returned to the leasing company a few months back

The Madrid operation was losing a load of money and lead investors Leadgate decided to give up and code share with IBERIA

They have also given back their 737s and the fleet is now made up of 5 Bombardiers

The company is heavily indebted and owes cash to ANCAP the state controlled petrol company - my understanding is that they virtually ahve to pay up front for gas - the wto companies are negotiating a payment plan
