American Airlines secures approval to resume flights to Venezuela

American Airlines Venezuela
  • American Airlines has secured approval to become the first US airline to resume flights to Venezuela since suspending service in 2019.
  • The airline's intention to restore flights was announced in January, following a directive from President Donald Trump to open commercial airspace over Venezuela.
  • This directive came after a US military raid that led to the removal of then-President Nicolás Maduro.
  • Despite the US State Department's continued warning against travel to Venezuela, the government has cleared American Airlines to schedule flights.
  • The resumption aims to allow Venezuelans and Americans to reunite with families and pursue business opportunities, after diplomatic relations between the two countries deteriorated.
