From Medellín, the airline said:

“Today, Civil Aeronautics issued a communication acknowledging the interests of various third parties regarding Viva’s urgent request to allow its integration with a stronger and broader group of airlines. This unprecedented decision by the entity will result in further delays in decision-making, for which Viva is forced to announce, unfortunately, the suspension of its operations with immediate effect.

The cancellation of Viva Air operations keeps the country on alert, as hundreds of passengers have been stranded in different air terminals in the national territory, even in other neighboring countries the same situation is reported.
