The main runway at Maiquetía International Airport in Venezuela will remain closed until November, according to a notice to airmen (NOTAM). This extension is due to ongoing repairs to the runway’s road and structural elements, following damage sustained during the June 24th earthquake. The initial damage was caused by a double tremor event. Repair work has been intensive, necessitating the prolonged closure for safety reasons. The airport has not specified the impact on flight schedules, but travelers should expect potential disruptions. This closure significantly affects air travel to and from the Venezuelan capital, Caracas. The repairs are crucial to restoring full operational capacity to the airport.
