Eastern Airlines launches new route between Miami and Montevideo

According to the information obtained by Aviacionline through the reservation system, Eastern Airlines will have regular flights between Miami and Montevideo from June 3rd. Operations will be carried out in the Boeing 767-300(ER), with a capacity for 244 passengers.

Montevideo, capital city of Uruguay, will be the seventh destination of Eastern from Miami, and the 13th route of its global network, if we take into account the routes regularly operated from New York and the new routes that they plan to start from Boston and JFK International Airport.
