Copa Airlines over the weekend announced that the government of Venezuela ordered, by resolution published in Official Gazette No. 6369, dated April 5, 2018, the suspension of the economic, commercial and financial relationship with subjects of the Republic of Panama.
This includes the suspension of Copa Airlines’ flights to Venezuela for a period of 90 days with possible renewal.
“In order to assist passengers who have scheduled flights to and from Venezuela in the next 90 days, Copa Airlines offers a reimbursement option, without penalties, of the total value of unused airline tickets. Passengers who may have initiated their flight are eligible to receive reimbursement without penalties for the unused route,” Copa said yesterday.
Copa has flights from Guyana too.
“Passengers flying between Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Chile and Venezuela may change their final destination to any of the airline’s destinations in Panama, Central America, the Caribbean, Guyana, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and Miami,” the Panamanian-owned airline said.
“Due to the volume of passengers affected by this measure, the reimbursement process may take longer than usual. Copa apologizes for the inconveniences that may arise from these external events affecting the airline.”
Copa Airlines said it is reaffirming its commitment to the safety and well-being of its passengers, so it will take all steps that are within its reach to provide assistance to its passengers and reduce the impact that this measure has had on their trips.
Copa Airlines is a leading Latin American provider of passenger and cargo services.
