Multiple international airlines increased their cancellation of flights to and from Venezuela on Nov. 23 after a warning of a “potentially hazardous situation” flying over the country’s Maiquetía region was issued by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on Nov. 21.
Six airlines—TAP, LATAM, Avianca, Iberia, Gol, and Caribbean—have indefinitely suspended flights, Marisela de Loaiza, president of the Airlines Association in Venezuela, told The Associated Press. Turkish Airlines suspended flights from Nov. 24 to Nov. 28.
