GEORGETOWN, Guyana (CMC) – Several passengers bound for Venezuela are stranded at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) as Guyana has suspended the flights of the state owned Venezuelan airline Conviasa.

According to Demerara Waves Online News, this stems from the airline’s failure to pay a passenger bond.

A civil aviation official has been quoted as saying that the “permit has been suspended because they have not established their financial obligations.”

The bond is usually deposited to assist in reimbursing stranded passengers should the carrier cease operations suddenly.

Roraima Airways, which provides ground-handling services to Conviasa, confirmed that the Venezuelan carrier was not allowed to land at the airport on Saturday.

Conviasa began plying the Guyana-Venezuela route in December 2013.
