Top tips for finding cheap flights to Ecuador
- Book at least 4 weeks before departure in order to get a below-average price.
- High season is considered to be January, November and December. The cheapest month to fly from Canada is May.
- Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Ecuador flight deals.

It is also forbidden for any child 12 or younger to travel in the front seat of a vehicle, but child restraints are not a requirement when travelling in a taxi.

Airline reviews
Cons: "Copa is trash . Doesn’t accolade passengers with hotels . They except people to wait in the airport for 14 hrs lay over when it’s their fault ! Straight trash . Poor 79 year old lady had to stay at the airport cause her family was 4 hours away ! Trash trash"
Cons: "Copa is trash . Doesn’t accolade passengers with hotels . They except people to wait in the airport for 14 hrs lay over when it’s their fault ! Straight trash . Poor 79 year old lady had to stay at the airport cause her family was 4 hours away ! Trash trash"
Cons: "The turbulence was really bad ! I couldn’t sleep at all !"
Cons: "I called in advance and asked for a vegetarian meal. Then during the flight they said they were not told about it. Also, they was only one movie as entertainment. That should not be allowed on an international flight >5 hours long. Very disappointed."
Cons: "Food was not good. I had the meet empanada with chips. What ever happened with the great meal Copa used to give us?"
Cons: "It the plan landed on time we would have made the connecting light and the pilot has very poor English, so it was hard to understand important information once we landed."
Pros: "The information provided prior to the flight and online booking experience."
Cons: "Rude flight attendants Rude gate / entry attendants No guidance was given to passengers prior to boarding regarding how long it would be until boarding so everyone was just standing around pushing toward the doors. Long, unorganized boarding process. Attendants just allowed everyone to gather in front of the doors so rude passengers pushed their way to the front and cut the "line." No tvs in the seats. I am vegetarian and was not given a vegetarian option! Very Inconsiderate of this airline. Even worse, the flight attendant basically told me that it was my fault because I didn't ask for one in advance. Extremely poor customer service! Had I been asked, I would have requested a vegetarian meal but I did not see that option when booking."
Pros: "Movies"
Cons: "They completely damaged my luggage bags, so much for paying to check in to have it returned broken, thorn and without wheels. I want a reimbursement for the ticket or the cost of 2 new suitcases."
Cons: "No room in business class overhead for our bags. Seats head little padding. Very poor quality biz class seats. Food mediocre and not edible. No bottled water."
Pros: "After not being alowed to board, due to oversold flight, a Copa assistant walked me back through customs and helped me find my bag which was nice of her."
Cons: "I was put on standby due to a “technical error” and then told I would not be able to board because the flight was oversold. Copa offered me a $400 voucher which I declined. Then I was told that it wasn’t negotiable. Sad that they wouldn’t offer more than $400 so that one of the other 100 passengers could have agreed to change."
Pros: "Great seats both legs. New aircraft 737800? Nice jet!!"
Cons: "Characters difficult to type in on comment for in flight service. Turns out it is just for the entertainment interface so Alitalia confusing when rating."
Pros: "I liked the food and the service from the crew."
Cons: "Entertainment screen and updated aircraft. Bogota to San Salvador flight was short and provided many inflight entertainment options and more comfortable seating ( leg room ). A this 6 hour flight was the opposite and extremely uncomfortable to be using an outdated aircraft for a long flight. I should have flown direct into LAX."
Cons: "The food was really small and the crew, in general, lazy."
Cons: "Yo compré mi pasaje con 5 meses de anticipación y cuando llegue al aeropuerto me dijeron que estaba standby. Un súper mal rato. Las chicas del front desk fueron de muy poca ayuda y creo que es una práctica típica de la empresa."
Pros: "El servicio y atención de cada persona de la aerolínea, inmejorable!"
Cons: "Snaks"
Pros: "We were well cared for on this flight. Treated like people and not cattle, a big change from other airlines."
Pros: "The kids movie selection was still good."
Cons: "There were no barf bags on hand, the food was an option between some disgusting eggs floating in water or a yogurt with some not great granola. Customer service was kind of non existent."
Pros: "thank you for the patience you have with passengers and children, very grateful thousand thanks Avianca"
Pros: "We never too this flight as Avianca cancelled our original flight. Your partner in Airfare.com was absolutely zero help in helping us resolve the issue. They told me I had to contact Avianca directly to resolve the matter. The only flights they had available were on different days."
Cons: "I am still trying to get a refund from the airline for a flight that they knew I was never going to take. I will never use any sort of third-party service for booking anything again. What is the point using it if it will be zero help when I did not cause the changes that occurred??"
Cons: "Some employees from the airport Benito Juarez looked into my baggage and stole some souvenirs, please be advised to do not leave your baggage with the airport standby system, there are some private lockers that you can use instead."
Pros: "Atencion en general"
Cons: "Mucho retraso en el vuelo lo cual me perrjudca ecnomicamente"
I like the plane , but i was 50 mts before my fly and they didn’t let me document my luggage, so they told my that I have to leave my luggage or buy an others tickets , because they didn’t want me to give me credit for the tickets I have so that is abuse from the company , and on the line it was 5 families with the same situation equal lime mine , I think they doing business with the tickets w people ,; Mexico has a bad working people, the rip money from turists, and is bad because give bad impression of the company that is aereomexico

Cons: "Everything seemed fine."
Pros: "Very communicative about things like bathrooms being closed for sanitation, turbulence etc."
Pros: "The crew was great"
Cons: "Check in on line was diffucult and did not include opportunity to precheck a check in bag. Acwaste of time fir everyine in line"
Pros: "The crew was nice for the most part"
Cons: "I was told I HAD to pick up my bag at the Mexico City layover, which turned out to not be true. Because I was told by 2 different people AND the flight announcement that I had to, it caused a lot of undue stress when I waited for my bag and it never showed up, because it was being sent all the way to Merida, my final destination. I thought my bag was lost, and I was scared flying to another country by myself, so it would have really helped my trip if they understood to tell me to look on my baggage receipt what city it said on there."
Pros: "Comfortable plane."
Cons: "Boarding, it was organized chaos with having to show your passport verification then get in another line to board."
Cons: "Attendants were rude or looked at me like I was inconviniencing them. Not good service at all."
Pros: "Everything was ok except the audio"
Cons: "I could not use my earphones because the entry was blocked. You should get it fixed. Seat 23D"

Cons: "The seat on the flight are too small the average person does not fit comfortable."
Pros: "Nada"
Cons: "No pude tomar mi vuelo por un error entre su plataforma, la de priceline y la de Aeromexico en el que finalmente salí afectada yo.. Es la peor experiencia que he tenido y no volveré a utilizar sus servicios."
Cons: "2 seat plane does not have any flat screen for entertainment."
Pros: "The crew was very friendly. We received a small meal, which I liked."
Cons: "Our luggage took a while to get"
Pros: "Arrived 15 min earlier."
Cons: "They did not advice in advance the need of an app in order to listen to music or movies."
Pros: "El vuelo fue bien."
Cons: "No había opciones de entertainment. Y para comer nada más nos dieron cacahuates. ¡Qué poca!"
Pros: "Was so bad my first expirance"
Cons: "I lost my fly bacause they didnt have the gate ready when I was going ti ask every 30 minutes. When they got the correct was late already and and didnt let me take the airplane"
Pros: "I loved the blankets and the little box meals"
Cons: "I didn’t like the seats they need more cushion And only 1 flight had Gogo entertainment"
Cons: "WiFi going in and out, and having to take a bus to board the plane"
Pros: "None, my flight got delayed and I missed my flight to Monterey."
Cons: "Read above."
Cons: "Mexico City airport is disorganized. Customs can take a long time. We a full 3 hour layover and barely made our connecting flight. They don't announce the boarding gate until the plane is loading."
Pros: "First class food was not that great and service not that great but everything else was great."
Pros: "United is fine."
Cons: "They have a Delay and they comunicated late. I traveled with a 3 month old baby, so you can imagine whe you have a delay of more than 5 hours."
Cons: "It would be great if airlines would identify where infants are sitting when it comes to upgrading seats. I spent $350 so my husband and I could be kicked and pushed non-stop by a screaming and crying infant. If we had known, we would’ve saved our money and just sat in economy."
Cons: "Seats were too small; my knees were always against the seat in front of me. Take-off from Dulles was extremely rough. The landing wasn't much better."
Cons: "Brussels Air ticketed the flight but apparently restricted the weight of bag to 50 pounds, couldn’ Even pay extra for the 65 pound bag. Co-share United Airlines was completely unhelpful!!"
Pros: "it was ok.. but I like to flight with Lufthansa more"
Cons: "I bought the flight from Lufthansa, but at the end was a United Plane.."
Cons: "Flight was cancelled on our way back home from Gudalajara, was speaking to a representative for almost 2 hours to get me on the next flight the flight representative forgot to put me on hold and told everyone how rude i was, i was not rude i was just trying to get home. The representative couldn’t help me so i asked to be transferred to a manager, after 2 hours i was transferred and the manager hung the phone up. Long story short i called back spoke to another manager Yana and she was the rudest lady ever! She basically told me for waiting to long i will have to be placed on a flight 2 days after my cancellation flight. I started to cry because i needed to be home and she basically did not care so i took the date. Never again and i will warn everyone about this airline and their customer service!"
Pros: "on time, got the seat I wanted"
Cons: "steward was somewhat aggressive, but was responsive one on one. Focus on size of carry on baggage was anxiety producing."
Pros: "For an extremely late gate arrival, United personnel were very accommodating."
Cons: "One flight attendant was more than curt and impatient when taking food orders. Cabin announcement told passengers to check menu in setback pocket. There was no menu. Attendant didn't offer one until another passenger who overheard conversation requested menu. As a frequent United traveler BOS > SFO, normally a 5-6 hour flight, attendants always seem to be rushing, brusque."
Pros: "Our flight was 30 minutes late leaving which gave me a too quick layover. Newark Airport website doesn't advertise the bus terminals, just the trans (which means security) - but the flight attendants were so kind and told me exactly where to go to do the bus so I didn't miss my flight, although it was close!"
Pros: "If it weren't for the great staff, I'd give this flight a 1."
Cons: "The new seats only give the illusion of reclining. There isn't enough space to comfortably lean forward. I thought I'd be sleeping through this flight, however there was absolutely no way to get comfortable. I didn't go to SFO , I was redirected to LAX."
