==Destinations== ===During the 1930s=== At that time, Lloyd Aéreo Boliviano offered mostly domestic flights, each of which with several stopovers (which was normal at a time where the range of airlines was very limited compared to today's situation). The route network had two [[airline hub|hubs]]: In [[Cochabamba]], the headquarters of the airline, and in [[Santa Cruz de la Sierra]]. Scheduled services were offered to the following destinations:<ref>[http://www.timetableimages.com/ttimages/lb1/lb32/lb32-2.jpg LAB 1932 timetable]</ref><ref>[http://www.timetableimages.com/ttimages/lb1/lb32/lb32-1.jpg LAB 1932 route map]</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.timetableimages.com/ttimages/lb3708bc.htm|title=Lloyd Aereo Boliviano|access-date=21 February 2017}}</ref> {{col-begin}} {{col-break}} ;Bolivia *[[Cachuela Esperanza]] *[[Camiri]] *[[Charagua]] *[[Cobija]] *[[Cochabamba]] '''(hub)''' *[[Guajará-Mirim]] *[[Lagunillas, Bolivia|Lagunillas]] *[[La Paz]] *[[Magdalena, Beni|Magdalena]] *[[Oruro, Bolivia|Oruro]] *[[Potosí]] {{col-break}} *[[Puerto Suárez]] *[[Riberalta]] *[[Roboré]] *[[San José de Chiquitos]] *[[Santa Ana del Yacuma]] *[[Santa Cruz de la Sierra]] '''(hub)''' *[[Sucre]] *[[Tarija, Bolivia|Tarija]] *[[Todos Santos, Bolivia|Todos Santos]] *[[Trinidad, Bolivia|Trinidad]] *[[Vallegrande]] *[[Villamontes]] *[[Yacuíba]] {{col-break}} ;Brazil *[[Corumbá]] {{col-end}} In [[Corumbá|Corumba]], passengers could connect on [[Serviços Aéreos Cruzeiro do Sul|Syndicato Condor]] flights to destinations within Brazil and even to Europe. Similarly, in La Paz, connecting flights to the [[Peru]]vian towns of [[Arequipa]] and [[Lima]] were offered in co-operation with [[Deutsche Luft Hansa|Deutsche Lufthansa Peru]].<ref>[http://www.timetableimages.com/ttimages/complete/lb39/lb39-1.jpg 1939 LAB timetable]</ref> Like LAB, these airlines were aiming at the German minorities in the respective countries. ===During the 1960s=== By then, Santa Cruz had replaced Cochabamba as the largest hub for Lloyd Aéreo Boliviano (now [[flag carrier]] of Bolivia), with another one having been opened at [[Teniente Jorge Henrich Arauz Airport|Trinidad Airport]], and international routes being offered from [[El Alto International Airport|La Paz Airport]]. The domestic network had grown to extensive size, covering most airports in the country (still relying on multiple-stopover flights). More international routes had been added, with LAB now also offering flights to [[Chile]], [[Argentina]] and [[Peru]]. The following destinations were served on a scheduled basis in 1964, using [[Douglas DC-3]], [[Douglas DC-6|DC-6]] or [[Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress|Boeing B-17G]] (the latter being military cargo aircraft converted from a bomber, which could also accommodate passengers).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.timetableimages.com/ttimages/lb6407i.htm|title=LAB – Lloyd Aéreo Boliviano|access-date=21 February 2017}}</ref> {{col-begin}} {{col-break}} ;Bolivia *[[Apolo, La Paz|Apolo]] *[[Ascención de Guarayos]] *[[Bermejo Airport]] *[[Camiri]] *[[Cobija]] *[[Cochabamba]] '''(hub)''' *[[Concepción, Santa Cruz|Concepcíon]] *[[Copacabana, Bolivia]] *[[Guayaramerín]] *[[La Paz]] '''(international focus city)''' *[[Magdalena, Beni|Magdalena]] *[[Puerto Rico, Bolivia|Puerto Rico]] *[[Puerto Suárez]] *[[Reyes, Bolivia|Reyes]] *[[Riberalta]] *[[Roboré]] *[[Rurrenabaque]] {{col-break}} *[[San Borja, Bolivia|San Borja]] *[[San Ignacio de Moxos]] *[[San Ignacio de Velasco]] *[[San Javier, Ñuflo de Chávez|San Javier]] *[[San Joaquín, Bolivia|San Joaquín]] *[[San José de Chiquitos]] *[[San Ramón, Beni|San Ramón]] *[[Santa Ana del Yacuma]] *[[Santa Cruz de la Sierra]] '''(main hub)''' *[[Sucre]] *[[Tarija, Bolivia|Tarija]] *[[Todos Santos, Bolivia|Todos Santos]] *[[Trinidad, Bolivia|Trinidad]] '''(hub)''' *[[Villamontes]] *[[Yacuíba, Tarija]] {{col-break}} ;Argentina *[[Buenos Aires]] *[[Salta]] ;Brazil *[[Corumbá]] *[[São Paulo]] ;Chile *[[Arica]] ;Peru *[[Lima]] {{col-end}} ===During the 1970s=== During the 1970s, LAB's President Mario Patino Ayoroa <ref>{{Cite web | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=qFIlAAAAMAAJ&q=Mario+Patino+Ayoroa |title = Memoria anual|last1 = Boliviano|first1 = Lloyd Aéreo|year = 1966}}</ref> developed the company's routes and made it an international player.

(2006)]] At that time, the LAB network had been consolidated, appearing more or less in the shape it would retain until the 2000s. The largest Bolivian cities were linked with destinations all over South America, as well as in the United States (international flights usually had several stopovers). International flights as well as hub-to-hub flights were operated using [[Boeing 727]] aircraft, whilst the [[Fokker F27 Friendship|Fokker F-27]] and the similar [[Fairchild F-27]] were deployed on the domestic network.<ref>[http://www.timetableimages.com/i-kl/lb8712a.jpg LAB 1987 timetable]</ref><ref>[http://www.timetableimages.com/i-kl/lb8803fa.jpg LAB 1988 timetable]</ref> From 1990, Lloyd Aéreo Boliviano moved its main hub in [[Santa Cruz de la Sierra]] from [[El Trompillo Airport]] to [[Viru Viru International Airport]].<ref>[http://www.timetableimages.com/i-kl/lb9010a.jpg LAB 1990 timetable]</ref> {{col-begin}} {{col-break}} ;Bolivia *[[Bermejo, Bolivia|Bermejo]] – [[Bermejo Airport]] *[[Camiri]] – [[Camiri Airport]] *[[Cobija]] – [[Captain Aníbal Arab Airport]] *[[Cochabamba]] – [[Jorge Wilstermann International Airport]] '''(focus city)''' *[[Guayaramerín]] – [[Guayaramerín Airport]] *[[La Paz]] – [[El Alto International Airport]] '''(hub)''' *[[Magdalena, Beni|Magdalena]] – [[Magdalena Airport]] *[[Puerto Suárez]] – [[Puerto Suárez International Airport]] *[[Reyes, Bolivia|Reyes]] – [[Reyes Airport]] *[[Riberalta]] – [[Riberalta Airport]] *[[Rurrenabaque]] – [[Rurrenabaque Airport]] *[[San Borja, Bolivia|San Borja]] – [[Capitán Germán Quiroga Guardia Airport]] *[[San Ignacio de Velasco]] – [[Cap.
