After undergoing temporary closure due to ongoing construction issues, the runway at Sangster International Airport in St. James has been reopened. However, this reopening came with significant inconveniences for both incoming and outgoing travelers. The closure of the runway has resulted in strong public criticism and heightened scrutiny from Minister Daryl Vaz, who holds responsibility for the matter.
Maintaining its status as the Caribbean’s top airport for 14 consecutive years, Sangster International Airport came to a standstill earlier today for several hours. This led to the diversion and cancellation of numerous flights. Sharon Hislop-Holt, the Manager of Commercial Business Development and Marketing at MBJ Airports Limited, provided an account of the reasons behind the temporary closure. Minister Daryl Vaz, who oversees Science, Energy, Telecommunications, and Transport, offered additional insights into the suspension of operations and the timeline of his awareness of the situation.
