PLUNA

PLUNA was Uruguay’s national airline brand but ceased scheduled operations and no longer offers passenger services, so it cannot be booked for current travel. From a traveler’s perspective the brand is defunct; anyone planning travel to or from Montevideo (Carrasco, MVD) should look to currently operating carriers serving that airport and confirm ticketing protections and refund options before rebooking.

Frequent-flyer program

PLUNA no longer operates and does not have an active frequent-flyer program available for crediting current flights.

Where PLUNA Flew

PLUNA was centered on Montevideo’s Carrasco General Cesáreo L. Berisso International Airport (MVD) and historically focused on domestic and regional South American routes with some international services from that hub; because the airline has ceased operations it no longer flies any routes. There is no active alliance or codeshare network to rely on under the PLUNA brand for current travel.

Aircraft and Cabin Classes

PLUNA historically operated a mix of older piston, turboprop and early jet types across its history. Aircraft types flown at various times included classic piston/turboprops such as Douglas DC-2 and DC-3, Vickers Viscount 700/800, Fokker F27 Friendship, Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante, Fairchild Hiller FH-227 and de Havilland Heron, as well as jet types including Boeing 707 and 727. Cabin configurations varied by aircraft and era; smaller regional turboprops were typically single-class economy, while larger jets used on longer services sometimes featured a separate front-cabin class depending on the route and equipment.

Aircraft types operated: Douglas DC-2, Douglas DC-3, Vickers Viscount 700, Vickers Viscount 800, Boeing 727-100, Boeing 707, Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante, Fokker F27 Friendship, Fairchild Hiller FH-227, de Havilland DH.114 Heron
