OFFICIAL STATEMENT



Bogotá, September 2024 - SATENA, informs its users and the general public that the reported blockades in various regions of the country have caused delays in flights 8770-8771 covering the Bogotá-Aguachica-Bogotá route. Additionally, during the morning hours, the Palonegro International Airport in Bucaramanga was temporarily closed due to a lack of aeronautical personnel and firefighters, who were unable to reach the facilities because the road was completely blocked, preventing the passage of vehicles. This caused delays in flights 8924-8925-7742-7741-8753, covering the Saravena-Bucaramanga-Saravena-Bucaramanga routes.
