Plus Ultra under suspicion: the overweight flights worrying the industry
The airline Plus Ultra is at the centre of an investigation into operational irregularities that go beyond mere administrative matters. Recent reports point to flights between 2023 and 2024 with cargo anomalies reaching 10 tonnes of excess weight, a fact that has raised alarms about the real nature of the operations of the Spanish-Venezuelan company.
The shadow of irregular cargo and the dismantling of the investigation
The analysis of the airline's operational data reveals unusual activity on critical routes, connecting hubs known for international drug trafficking. The timing coincidence between the detection of these overweight loads of up to 10 tonnes and the subsequent dissolution of the Guardia Civil (Spanish police force) unit in charge of investigating these irregularities is, to say the least, troubling from a state oversight perspective. While the company continues its activity, the disappearance of the official investigative team leaves a transparency gap that fuels suspicions about political protection of this type of company.
The impact of transport networks on the shadow economy
The link between Plus Ultra and highly sensitive transport routes is not an isolated fact, but rather part of a scenario where drug trafficking and air logistics appear to converge. The weight of these operations in capital flows is an unknown that institutions avoid auditing, suggesting that the profits derived from these activities could be embedded in financial circuits more deeply than the official narrative admits. The question that remains unanswered is to what extent the business fabric, even with institutional connections, depends on drug logistics to sustain its financial viability.
