A few hours from the world

The geographical location of El Salvador facilitates access to the main cities of North and South America. The country’s time zone is the Central Standard Time (CST) as it is in the center of the US, and offers a bioceanic corridor, close to the Trans-Pacific route and the Panama Canal.

This strategic location turns El Salvador into an attractive destination for tourist developments. From the international airport and after short flights (2-5 hours) the main cities of North and South America can be easily reached. In addition, the highlight of El Salvador International Airport is being Avianca’s regional hub.

This location in the center of the Americas is optimal and constitutes a true commercial bridge for companies seeking short response times and to meet the demand of customers in North and South America, Europe and Asia.
