Bizarre flight

I took a flight from CTG to MDE on Wednesday night. I was waiting in departures when I heard my name called, I was then sent off across the apron with no chaperone in a thunderstorm. Found my plane, got on and then a minute later 2 more boarded and that was it, 3 passengers on a A320, door closed and off we went.

Apparently theyd put everyone else on the flight leaving 30 mins before. 3 cabin crew and 3 passengers, youd think the service would be immense!! Not one sight of them the whole trip, no food or drink offering, totally bizarre.

I really don"t understand people complaining about lack of drink or food on short flights. I am flying avianca a lot and still think this is the best airline. Good prices in economy, quick check-in and they never lost my bag.

I agree, I think just rather strange that when they could easily make a difference they chose not to. I couldnt give a flying F why they do, but to do less than they would have done on a regular flight takes some beating. Anyway, Id fly Copa over Avianca any day, Ive been mighty impressed by them.

This is normal for all AV domestic flights in Colombia.

Not sure why you expected food in a domestic LCC flight.
