#4  Just returned from Santiago Chile and I found many of my servers were from Venezuela...Probably skewed toward the more educated as they spoke English better than my Spanish , but a couple I talked to are trying to bring their sisters and cousins down...although parents aren't willing to come no matter how bad things get. On a one on one level, they could have been any college age kid working at Buffalo Wild Wings. One kid thanked me profusely just for saying I was sorry for his countries situation...he said "thank you for at least noticing".

#2  Checked around (Airline Pilots Assn).
The actual issue is secure JP4 (jet fuel, kerosene). Seems it's never available.
