While we’ll see how this plays out, American Airlines has announced plans to resume flights to Venezuela. However, the airline is stopping short of providing exact details.
While American is making this announcement, no launch date has been revealed, and “the airline remains in close contact with federal authorities, and is ready to commence flights to Venezuela, pending government approval and security assessments.” As it’s described, flights will provide the opportunity for business, leisure, and humanitarian travelers to move seamlessly between the countries.
Second, as an aviation geek, I’m much more intrigued by Venezuela’s airlines returning to the United States. Those gorgeous Conviasa Airbus A340-600s are more than welcome to fly overhead here in Miami anytime, as far as I’m concerned! I’d rather see them here than at their other typical destinations, including Moscow (SVO), Tehran (IKA), etc.!
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
