Strike shuts down Grantley Adams International Airport

LIAT has announced that all flights to and from Barbados for Thursday March 24 have been delayed due to the closure of the Grantley Adams International Airport as a result of strike action by Air Traffic Controllers.

An advisory from LIAT noted that it that passengers who decide to travel but are unable to complete their journey will not be provided with meals, transportation or hotel accommodation as the situation is beyond LIAT’s control.

“Passengers with onward connections are advised to contact the respective carriers,” the LIAT statement noted.

Affected passengers are asked to continue to monitor the LIAT website (www.liat.com); or contact the LIAT Call Centre from Antigua – 1-268-480-5582; toll free from the rest of the Caribbean – 1-888-844-5428 and from Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands – 1-866-549-5428 or by emailing Reservations@liat.com.

Affected customers who wish to rebook for a later date will be allowed to do so without change fees or fare differences for a period of two weeks from the date of their original scheduled travel. Following the two-week grace period, passengers will be required to pay applicable fare and change fees when re-booking.
