Avianca has transported nearly 120 tons of humanitarian aid to Venezuela, including food, medicine, water, hygiene kits, tents, clothing, pet supplies, and other essential items. The airline has also enabled travel for rescue teams, medical brigades, firefighters, and specialized emergency personnel, in coordination with regional authorities and social organizations, including a flight transporting humanitarian aid and support personnel arranged by the government of El Salvador. 

GOL, together with Brazil’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, deployed a humanitarian flight carrying six tons of medicines, including 350,000 doses of vaccines, to support those affected by the earthquake in Venezuela.

Avianca has temporarily launched a special operation between Bogotá -in Colombia- and Valencia in Venezuela, offering 2 daily flights, with preferential fares and flexible ticket policies, to help maintain connectivity until operations at Simón Bolívar International Airport in Maiquetía are restored.

Additionally, the LifeMiles loyalty program has engaged its customers in a donation campaign through its Banco de Millas, raising contributions of over 10 million miles. Abra Group will match these donations to further support the transport of rescue teams, medical personnel, and specialists.

Abra Group remains ready to assist in this ongoing crisis.
