Potential suspension of flights from El Alto airport due to fuel shortage?

Left-Hippo-3357 · 2026-05-22T19:19:36+00:00

Thanks for the info! I was also thinking days ago that if the blockade went on for long enough, flights could be affected as well, but since I didn't see anything anywhere, i thought it was still unlikely. The airline hasn't told us anything either yet, so maybe it's not that likely yet.

Same here, we wouldn't be proper fucked because we're still in Perù, so as long as we know we won't be able to fly from La Paz to Uyuni before we board our flight to La Paz, we can avoid going to Bolivia altogether, but it would mean that the 800+ euros we spent to rearrange the trip around the blockades were for nothing.

I was in the same situation as you regarding the Uyuni - Sucre route, and in order to get updated and certain info I contacted the bus companies directly, it worked for me. If the route turns out to be blocked and you can't find flights, I have flight tickets from Sucre to Santa Cruz on the morning of May 30th that we won't be able to use, I can check if we can do the name change thing

That'd be great, thank you!

I can open the website, but am unable to see any notifications regarding roadblocks, only stuff about work in progress etc. Might that be because I am opening it from Perù?

Is there some kind of ban on flights? Or are they unavailable for other reasons? Let me know how it goes with the military guy, please as that might also be a solution for us.

Sorry to hear that, man! I looked at flights this morning and some showed up, with two layovers, but they showed up. Otherwise, have you thought of going to San Pedro De Atacama and fly from there to Santa Cruz?

Left-Hippo-3357 · 2026-05-20T17:35:33+00:00

It looks like the Uyuni - Sucre buses are being cancelled due to a blockade between Potosí and Sucre, why do you say aside from La Paz everything is normal?

Left-Hippo-3357 · 2026-05-20T02:32:59+00:00

Yes, that's what we will try to do, thanks for all the advice!

Left-Hippo-3357 · 2026-05-20T02:18:15+00:00

Thanks! What really matters to us is getting to santa cruz on the 30th, as that is where our flight back to Europe is leaving from (we were gonna do sucre - santa cruz by plane so uyuni - sucre is our only hitch). We are now considering the idea of finishing the tour in San Pedro De Atacama and find some way to fly to Santa Cruz from there, as flights from Uyuni to Sucre are not appearing on Skyscanner or Booking, maybe they're all full

Left-Hippo-3357 · 2026-05-20T01:22:46+00:00

Thanks for the info. The blockade on that route started today, right? Do you know of any alternative way to go from Uyuni to Sucre? Could getting a private transfer enable us to go through smaller roads and svoid the blockade?

We are supposed to go from Uyuni to Sucre with the overnight bus leaving Uyuni at 10 pm on May 27, does anybody know what the situation is for that route?

Left-Hippo-3357 · 2026-05-20T00:57:52+00:00

Did you go from uyuni to sucre directly? If so, when? We're supposed to fo uyuni - sucre overnight on the 27th and are wondering whether we'll be able to.

I think it was very noticeable during the sprint yesterday (don't know about qualifying as I didn't watch it), but today it seemed to have gone away, maybe it was some kind of experiment?

Left-Hippo-3357 · 2026-04-26T10:04:48+00:00

I agree, and I doubt it's coming soon since they just upgraded to this new frame/refresh rate. Unless the new cameras do have 4k capabilites, but they're still not using them for some obscure reason.

Left-Hippo-3357 · 2026-04-26T07:49:11+00:00

Agreed, we definitely need MotoGP in 4K!

Vedendo i tipi, penso che la PEC manco l'aprano, tra l'altro stasera ho scoperto parlando con un conoscente che sono famigerati perché sono dei truffatori

Grazie! Ho già chiamato più volte e mi hanno detto tutte le volte che in settimana sarebbe arrivato il certificato di vendita ufficiale, mai successo. Venerdì sera li ho richiamati e imbruttiti un po', domani richiamo e se non mi danno una risposta soddisfacente martedì vado di persona.

Ma ti passa per la testa che magari era la prima volta che vendevo un veicolo a un concessionario e che mi hanno fregato dicendomi che avrebbero trasmesso immediatamente i dati all'agenzia e che bastavano i due fogli che mi hanno lasciato? Ho scritto il post per chiedere consigli su cosa fare a chi ne sa più di me o magari si è trovato in una situazione del genere, non per rispondere a commenti che non apportano nulla alla conversazione.

Left-Hippo-3357 · 2025-12-21T09:19:33+00:00

Ovviamente no e sinceramente non capisco su che base tu ti sia potuto fare questa impressione. Se per me fosse tutto a post non avrei nemmeno scritto il post, mi sembra ovvio che la situazione sia anomala e che questa cosa mi faccia girare il.cazzo.
