Maiquetía reaches 49% as domestic routes return
Transport is moving toward restored connectivity: Maiquetía reports air operations at 49% after temporary terminals opened, while Aeropostal is adding Caracas links to Maracaibo and Porlamar. In finance, Consecomercio’s dual-currency proposal and Vnet’s commercial-paper authorization point to efforts to formalize transactions and funding, but neither establishes implementation.
A wider P2P FX spread and a dual-currency proposal keep monetary rules in focus as Vnet seeks new funding capacity.
Bottom line
Treat improved air access as operationally useful but not normalized: verify schedules and airport capacity, while keeping payment plans flexible until monetary authorities respond to the dual-currency proposal.
