The announcement of this air opening comes after bilateral relations between Venezuela and Brazil were formally reestablished, following the inauguration of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva as president of the South American giant last Sunday, January 1.
In this regard, Velásquez assured that these new destinations will allow Venezuela to boost the tourism sector, in order to “guarantee” the growth of “the non-oil economy”.
As regards domestic connections, the minister announced that during the first three months of the year, Conviasa will activate flights from the country’s capital to Mérida and San Fernando de Apure, reported EFE.
