American Airlines adds second daily frequency between Miami and Caracas from May
A few days before the resumption of direct flights between Venezuela and the United States, the American airline American Airlines will expand its operation with a second daily frequency on the Miami-Caracas route starting May 22, 2026. The decision responds to the increase in demand on this route, which marks the reactivation of the air connection between the two countries after several years of suspension. Tickets for this new itinerary are already available on the company's website, with fares exceeding $1,500 per passenger, in a context of high demand and limited supply in the initial phase.

- American Airlines will operate a second daily flight on the Miami-Caracas route starting May 22, 2026.
- This expansion is driven by increased demand following the resumption of direct flights between Venezuela and the U.S.
- Tickets for the new itinerary are priced above $1,500 due to high demand and limited initial supply.
