ST. JOHN’S, Antigua, February 12, 2010 – The continued presence of airborne ash clouds over Dominica and Guadeloupe has forced LIAT to suspend all remaining flights to both destinations for Friday, February 12.
The affected flights are LI 364 from Barbados to Dominica; LI 557 and LI 563 from Antigua to Dominica and LI 558 from Dominica to Guadeloupe and Antigua.
LIAT continues to assess the situation and will provide further updates as necessary.
yah dats a good decision dey made for real,cuz di combination of ash and certain parts in di airlines can be fatal trust me. nice move people
I hope Dominicans thank LIAT for it’s safety measures taken and don’t lambase the airline for not making it to Dominica, Dominicans have a tendercy of not understanding the implications of disasters and phenomena in our environment. THANK GOD FOR LIAT YOURE NUMBER ONE IN THE CARIBBEAN SKIES.
anonymous since u booked your flight and everything already i bet you have a number to call them yourself and find out. dont tell me you relying on dno to find that out for you its an important matter. your silly
Is Daddy Chess back yet?
Can someone please tell us when the flights have resumed and who are affected. I have to fly in on Sunday, but alot of my friends are fying in on Saturday.
Can DNO speak to someone at Liat so we can be aware what actions to take if necessary? Are there chartered flights etc???
Thanks
boiiii poor daddy chess …he maybe kickin dust up der boi .. i mean ashes
At such a time like this it is very unforunate to have this happen because during carnival tourism is up plus people in the diaspora usually visit home. I hope that the air will clear fast enough to have things resumed to normalcy. To all those participating, stay safe and keep the peace. One Love.
Understandably so, LIAT’s decision not to fly will leave a lot of passengers irate and stranded, but safety must be the #1 priority. Unfortunately, this is carnival time and the decision will certainly result in a huge loss for the respective islands, but God’s timing is never wrong.
I concur …… leave the butchering to the trained professionals …….. And do all your gardening before leaving home. Remember, show some love and respect to your brothers and sisters, while having a safe, festive, and enjoyable carnival.
i hope daddy chess can make it back tomorrow in time for the finals….
how ironic would it be if this prevented him from getting back here and
he has a song about liat?
anyway all my dominican people i would like to wish you all a very happy carnival
and please let us try to curb the violence…..there is no need to go in the band with
a knife(leave the butchering for trained professionals
