Barbados says no to commercial flights
According to Terry Layne, the acting chief executive officer of Grantley Adams International Airport (GAIA) Inc, Barbados is currently not taking any commercial flights or passengers.
Layne made that clear as he tried to clarify some public concern about a wide-bodied jet arriving at GAIA on Friday afternoon.
NationNews investigations showed that the jet came from the Royal Air Force in Britain. It brought in ten sailors to join the British warship HMS Medway which was berthed at the Bridgetown Port and transported three others back to Britain.
It is understood the Barbados Defence Force provided logistical and transportation support for this operation.
