Hello followers! I hope you've been enjoying all my flight reports with Avianca.
This time, get ready for the full version of my report with SATENA.

We experienced a delay due to weather and technical issues with one of the aircraft. Initially, I was scheduled to fly on an Embraer 145, but I was reassigned to an ATR 42-500 arriving from Apartadó. In total, my aircraft changed three times, going back and forth between the ERJ145 and the ATR—and even my seat changed three times too!

That afternoon, all CLIC Air flights were also delayed. SATENA's dispatch eventually decided to swap aircraft and allowed passengers to choose their seats freely—it was chaotic but honestly, kind of amazing!

Enjoy the start-up and pushback, which happened surprisingly fast after boarding, the takeoff, and the cloudy but beautiful sunset over the Medellín area.

Enjoy the ride!
