Although Guyana’s international airports are scheduled to reopen on Monday, airline operators are still to indicate to the Guyana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) their preparedness to resume commercial operations but a senior official expects them to return in weeks.
Director General of the GCAA Lt. Col. Egbert Field (ret’d) yesterday told Stabroek News that none of the five airlines operating out of the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA), Timehri has informed his agency of their readiness to resume commercial operations or presented a flight schedule.
He noted that Eastern Airlines, newcomer to the routes between Guyana and New York and Guyana and Miami, will continue to operate specially scheduled flights under the Repatriation and Human Relief Act.
