Boliviana de Aviacion (OB)
BoA
Boliviana de Aviación (BoA) is Bolivia’s national carrier that functions primarily as a full-service regional airline from a traveler’s perspective, focusing on domestic connectivity and regional South American routes with some longer-range services. The airline operates a mix of narrowbody and regional jets for short and medium sectors and uses widebody aircraft for its longest routes.
BoA is not a member of a major global airline alliance; travelers should expect a straightforward service product oriented around transporting passengers across Bolivia and nearby international destinations rather than comprehensive global alliance connectivity.
Where Boliviana de Aviación Flies
BoA’s network is centered on domestic connectivity within Bolivia from Jorge Wilsterman International Airport (CBB) and extends to regional international destinations across South America. The airline mixes short domestic hops and regional flights using 737s and regional jets with longer international sectors operated on its 767 widebodies. Its route map is focused on linking Bolivian cities to one another and to nearby countries; broader international access is sometimes supported through partnerships and interline arrangements rather than alliance membership.

Aircraft and Cabin Classes
BoA operates a mixed fleet of narrowbody and regional jets for domestic and short-regional services alongside a widebody Boeing 767 for longer-range routes. The narrowbody types in use include several Boeing 737 variants, while regional connectivity is served by smaller jets such as the Bombardier CRJ200. Cabin offerings are simple and travel-focused: short-haul aircraft are typically configured for economy travel, and the airline’s widebody aircraft used on longer sectors generally provide a separate premium or business-class cabin with more space and recline than the single-aisle aircraft.

Tips for Flying Boliviana de Aviacion (OB)
- Check the baggage allowance and any ancillary fees when booking, as domestic and international fares can carry different rules.
- Allow extra connection time for domestic itineraries-schedules on smaller carriers can change and ground transfer times at regional airports may be longer.
- Expect single-aisle Boeing 737 and regional jet services to be primarily economy-class; longer flights on the Boeing 767 are more likely to include a separate premium cabin if one is offered.
- Book seat assignments early if a specific seat matters to you, since seat selection may be limited or subject to fee on some fare types.
