Wayraperú S.A.C. is an inactive Peruvian airline based at Jorge Chávez International Airport in Lima, Peru, that operated between March and November 2006, then again from 2018 until 2021.
History
Early operations
At the end of 2004, the news of the creation of an airline was announced to the media. Wayraperú was the result of the joint venture between the Brazilian company Synergy Group (49%) through its subsidiary OceanAir, and Fondo de Inversiones Sustentables (51%), run by entrepreneur Pedro Koechlin.[1] On March 20, 2006, it formally began operations, inaugurating flights from Lima to Arequipa.[2] At its peak, the airline operated to 14 destinations, with three Fokker 100s previously owned by American Airlines.
On November 27, 2006, all flights were suspended, citing poor management creating an "existential" company crisis.[3] The airline had, according to September 2006 figures, 9% of the Peruvian market with flights to Arequipa, Iquitos, Tacna, Pucallpa, Talara, Tarapoto, Trujillo and Tumbes.[4]
Recommence operations
On January 30, 2018, Wayraperú announced they would restart operations after 12 years. The announcement came after the airline was due to acquire two Fokker 70s formerly owned by KLM Cityhopper.[5] The airline had an active air services license from the Ministry of Transportation and Communications of Peru that allowed it to carry out domestic passenger charter flights from its main base in Lima, as well as Iquitos, Tarapoto, Pucallpa and Chachapoyas. However, the airline did not yet have an air operator's certificate.[6]
On May 24, 2018, Wayraperú recommenced operations using a Fokker 70 from Tarapoto to Juan Simons Vela Airport on a reconnaissance flight, with airline employees and the mayor of Rioja, Mercedes Torres, on board.[7] The airline reportedly would also begin twice-weekly flights between Rioja and Lima from June 2018, which could have increased frequency according to demand.[8]
By 2021, Wayraperú had its last aircraft retired and stored in Lima,[citation needed] and its official web page has since shut down.
