Caribbean cancelations

It appears B6 has cancelled all service today from SXM, ANU, BGI…probably more. I’m flying tomorrow and got a waiver email this morning. Not sure I quite get why all services are cancelled today though as no other airline seems to have the same issues

Several airlines are cancelling flights to the Caribbean because the USA invaded Venezuela. Puerto Rico is being used as a staging ground so there are military flights to and from.

This is due to the military action in Venezuela and the airspace over the Caribbean being closed. I expect things will pick back up in a day or two.
