Travel between Asia and Central America became easier last week with the signing of a codeshare deal between Eva Air of Taiwan and fellow Star Alliance member, Avianca of Colombia.

Eva Air says it will now be able to offer its passengers multiple itinerary choices for flying to both Central and South America, where Avianca is the primary Star Alliance flight operator.
Passengers can now connect on nearly 20 flights a week to San Salvador, which can be reached from Taipei via the US, in about 20hr, including transit time.
Since joining Star Alliance in June 2013, Eva Air has steadily increased passenger benefits and conveniences through cooperation with member airlines, offering services to more than 190 countries and more than 1,300 destinations.
In addition to Avianca, the Taiwanese company has code-share relationships with more than a dozen carriers, including Singapore Airlines, Air Canada and United Airlines.
