As announced on March 23, 2020,
neither Mexico nor Puerto Rico have issued flight restrictions,
to date. In Puerto Rico, the FAA
has accepted a request from the Governor of Puerto Rico that all flights bound to
Puerto Rico land at LMM Airport,
which is operated by ASUR's subsidiary Aerostar, and that all
passengers be screened by representatives of the Puerto Rico Health
Department. As a result, the LMM airport remains open and
operating, albeit with substantially reduced flight and passenger
volumes. Mexico and/or
the United States may issue flight
restrictions similar to those issued in other parts of the world,
which would cause a significant further reduction in ASUR's
operations.
In addition, Decree 439, issued by the Government of
Colombia on March 20, 2020, suspended all incoming
international flights, including connecting flights in Colombia, for 30 days, starting March 23, 2020. Moreover, Decree 457, issued on
March 22, 2020, mandated preventive
isolation as well as the suspension of domestic air travel in
Colombia from March 25 to April 13, 2020. On April 8, 2020, Decree 531 suspended domestic air
travel starting April 13 until
April 27, 2020. This order was
subsequently extended in several instances through July 1, 2020, with the exception of humanitarian
emergencies, transportation of cargo and goods, and fortuitous
events or force majeure.
The Colombian Government resumed domestic flights in July, 2020,
starting with pilot tests for domestic routes between cities with a
low level of contagion. The government also delegated to the
municipal administrations the power to request to the Ministry of
the Interior, the Ministry of Transport and the Aerocivil
(aeronautical authority in Colombia), the approval to resume domestic
flights, with both municipalities required to agree in order to
restart such flights. As of today, the Rionegro (MDE) and
Medellin (EOH) airports have not
yet resumed domestic flights. Recently, the government also
announced that Colombia's airports
will reopen to international flights on September 1, 2020.
