As an attempt to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 in Paraguayan territory, the Paraguayan aviation authority (Direccion Nacional de Aeronautica Civil) banned all foreign commercial and private flights from landing in Paraguayan airports.
This restriction will initially last from March 24 until April 12.
However, these measures do not affect freight planes, aircrafts that provide medical services, or aid and rescue services. Also, the prohibition does not apply to foreign aircrafts sent in an attempt to repatriate foreign citizens to their home countries.
