History

Lloyd Aéreo Boliviano was established on September 15, 1925, when it was founded in Cochabamba by Guillermo Kyllman. The airline's name was Lloyd Aereo Boliviano S.A..

Lloyd Aereo Boliviano used their own plane on the route from La Paz and Rio de Janeiro, and La Paz to Corumbá. With this, Lloyd Aereo Boliviano and Condor Ltda. had a commercial agreement. Lloyd Aereo Boliviano, which was South America's second commercial airline, after Colombia's Avianca, soon increased their flights to the Brazilian destinations, and their fleet began to grow too.

Fleet

Lloyd Aereo Boliviano suspended operations on April 1, 2007. Of its 11 aircraft, eight are stored at the airline's base at Cochabamba, two in Lima, Peru, and one at Sao Jose dos Campos, Brazil.

Retirements in recent years have included an Airbus A310-300, three Boeing 727-100s, two Boeing 727-200s, a Boeing 727-200 Freighter, a Boeing 737-300 a Fokker F27-200 Friendship and, most recently, the airline's two Boeing 767-300ERs which it had been using for long-haul flights to Madrid, Miami and Washington, D.C.. A good half-dozen Boeing 727-200s are parked at Cochabamba, awaiting spares and funds to fly again. The sole remaining Boeing 737-300 is undergoing maintenance in São Paulo, Brazil. Long-haul routes within the Americas such as Miami, Mexico City and Havana (via Panama) and Washington, D.C. (via Miami), are all operated by the perhaps less than ideal Boeing 727-200s, equipped with winglets so as to reduce fuel-burn. The single Boeing 727-100 covered most of Bolivia's domestic routes--up to 16 flights a day--right up until March 5, 2007. She was retired that evening after 37 years of faithful and interrupted service with the same carrier, having historically been the most problem-free aircraft of the fleet. No other jetliner has served one airline for so long.^{[citation needed]} Image File history File links Licensing File history Legend: (cur) = this is the current file, (del) = delete this old version, (rev) = revert to this old version. ...
