There is no shortage of Venezuelan businesses who will happily take your credit card (but be prepared to pay the official exchange rate).
Maybe you can try
Venetour, a Venezuelan specialist TA based in the Canaries (though I haven't used them and so don't know if their service is any good).
Alternatively, Avior also have a direct flight from POS to PMV, though the website shows no availability for the dates I've looked at. I suppose you can always ring them and ask...
And,
