"We're a technical rescue team and can potentially find deeply entombed victims just by their movement.
We still believe we will make a decent contribution if we get there in the next day or two," Young said.
Young noted that the team maintains communication with the British government, which is actively assisting their deployment logistics.
"The British Government Fire Service Team are en route now, they're a heavy team with 68 people and we've got links with them.
But we don't hear much (from Venezuela), we don't know how they're doing," Young said.
Volunteers continue to monitor their remaining operational funding while coordinating with other international deployment units stranded in Europe.
"We've been reaching out to any other type of flights, military flights and lots of different ways," Young said.
The UK charity has an additional 22 personnel working from Britain to establish an entry corridor into the disaster zone.
"We have 11 out in deployment but twice that back in the UK working really hard to try to help us get there.
We're not alone – there's a French team and two Spanish teams facing the same problems," Young said.
The rescue workers remain focused on the life-saving potential of their technical detection equipment despite the logistical gridlock.
"We've been in contact with the Government and we know they're doing all they can, we have evidence of that.
They're out to help us," Young said.
The motivation for the deployment relies heavily on past successful operations in international disaster zones like Syria and Turkey.
