Zapped runway lights at CJIA restored

With the runway lights completely restored last evening, night flights to and from the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA), Timehri have fully resumed.

At around 4:00 pm yesterday the airport’s Facebook page announced that the first of the two circuits which were damaged on Sunday night was in operation and night flights were expected. The statement said that the update was conveyed to airlines through a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM).

“As of now, the airport has accommodated ten flights, comprising a private aircraft, a cargo plane, and eight-passenger flights,” the post said.
