Six major airlines, including Iberia, TAP Air Portugal, Avianca, Caribbean Airlines, Gol, and LATAM, canceled their flights to Venezuela following a security alert by the FAA about increased military activity and deteriorating conditions in Venezuelan airspace.The FAA warning, effective until February 19, 2026, mandates airlines to notify 72 hours before entering Venezuelan airspace due to risks at all flight phases caused by ongoing US military operations targeting drug trafficking.While these airlines canceled or altered flights, others like Copa Airlines, Air Europa, Turkish Airlines, and Venezuelan carriers Laser and Plus Ultra continued operating normally despite the heightened tensions.
