The crew of an American Airlines flight was briefly detained in 2008 after a crew member said "welcome to Venezuela, local Chavez time is", a U.S. report released by WikiLeaks said.
In December 2007, Venezuela created its own time zone, moving the clock back half an hour on a permanent basis, and according to the U.S. embassy report, "the crew member was likely trying to remind passengers of this and to suggest they turn their watches back 30 minutes."
American Airlines Venezuela manager Omar Nottaro told the U.S. embassy on October 1, 2008, that a passenger and friend of Venezuelan National lawmaker Carlos Echezuria Rodriguez, thought the crew member had said "loco Chavez time," which means crazy in Spanish.
