Return to Venezuela
GOL suspended flights to Venezuela in 2016 due to the impossibility of repatriating funds because of the Venezuelan government’s strict foreign exchange controls. This return represents a significant step in the expansion of its South American route network, reflecting a possible improvement in operating conditions or a renewed strategy for the Venezuelan market.
