With the return of three more passenger airlines at MIA in the past two weeks, the airport’s total number of passenger carriers is up to 22

The variety of diverse airline logos, passports and accents seen and heard at Miami International Airport continues to grow with the return of three more passenger airlines at MIA in the past two weeks.

Air France resumed service today with three weekly flights to Paris, providing MIA with its first flights to France since the beginning of the pandemic. Colombian flag carrier Avianca – the world's longest continuously flying airline at 100 years and counting – made its comeback to MIA on October 1 with a total of 16 weekly flights including daily service to Bogota.

Colombian low-cost carrier Viva Air re-started its Miami service a day earlier on September 30 with five weekly flights to Medellin.

The new airline restarts bring MIA's total number of passenger carriers to 22, complemented by 31 all-cargo airlines currently in operation. Pre-covid, MIA was home to 100 passenger and cargo airlines – the most of any US Airport.

Airline schedules are subject to change due to government travel restrictions, so passengers should confirm flight availability with their individual airline.
