Pros: Nothing outstanding. Met expectations
Cons: Avianca has an additional security screening at the gate at San Salvador airport. It didn't add any more security, and no other airline has this. Not flying with them again as long as they have this unnecessary process

6.6
Pros: The reason I rated this excellent is that the first lady at the baggage check-in desk did her best to put me and my fiance by assigning us together on the seat number 12 even though I lost my premium seat 7D- but I can forget that pain.
Cons: Food needs dire improvement. I used to love Avianca because of the food and drink but now the food and drinks are very nominal compared to Avianca's own track record as I flew quite a few time with Avianca.
