Taxi drivers at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA), Timehri are looking forward to the resumption of scheduled flights after being out of work for over six months.

With the closure of the airport and the restriction of flights as part of the measures taken to push back against the COVID-19 pandemic, taxi drivers at CJIA were forced to remain out of operation during the period.

Hafeez Bacchus, a taxi driver, said he welcomed the reopening.
