The resumption of the Armenia-Panama route will depend not only on the airline's operational recovery but also on El Edén airport's ability to provide conditions that ensure the long-term viability of this connection.

A simmering diplomatic stand-off over deportation flights spilled onto social media Sunday, threatening the once close relationship between the US and Colombia and further exposing the anxiety many feel in Latin America towards a second Trump presidency.
