Latam made a decision regarding passengers after disruptions at Bucaramanga airport
Given the serious public order situation affecting the operations of Palonegro International Airport, which serves the city of Bucaramanga, Latam Airlines Colombia confirmed the activation of a series of flexibility measures for its passengers.
TL;DR
- Latam Airlines is offering flexible travel options for passengers impacted by disruptions at Bucaramanga's Palonegro International Airport.
- Road blockades by protesters have affected airport operations and prevented essential staff from reaching their posts.
- Passengers with flights to, from, or via Bucaramanga can change their flight dates or times without incurring penalties or fare differences, provided the change is made within 7 days and the same cabin class is maintained.
- The resumption of services is dependent on aviation authorities and the official reopening of the airport.
