gtaylor Posted October 10, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Per the local newspaper, The Daily Herald. Windward Islands Airways International Winair will operate the first official commercial flight when the airport reopens this morning. The first international carrier to bring in passenger post-Irma is Delta Airlines. That flight is scheduled to arrive after 1:00pm and will be welcomed by government and airport officials. gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceansOfTravels Posted October 17, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 17, 2017 (edited) Great to hear! How is the condition of the airport? Seeing the destruction pics was so eerie to me, I had just flown in and out three weeks before the hurricane and everything was so happy and peaceful.... :o Edited October 17, 2017 by OceansOfTravels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
