It's Official! American Airlines Resumes Daily Direct Flights Between Caracas and Miami
After nearly seven years, the Venezuelan skies are directly connected to the United States once again. American Airlines has officially announced that, starting April 30, 2026, it will operate daily flights between Maiquetía International Airport (CCS) and Miami International Airport (MIA).
This return, operated by its subsidiary Envoy Air using modern Embraer 175 aircraft, reduces a journey that previously took up to 12 hours with layovers to just 3.5 hours. The impact on the country is massive: from easing family reunions for thousands to boosting international tourism toward destinations like Canaima and Los Roques.
