liat airlines
Many institutions in the US in the aviation industry, including American Airlines, they have gone belly-up many times over. Ownership of the airline was acquired by 11 Caribbean Governments in 1974 and it was renamed LIAT (1974) Ltd.
We are vulnerable. I pray that the employees will get paid their severance.Air Transportation is a very costly business enterprise, particularly maintenance, which is governed by International Regulatory Agencies. LIAT is one of the leading airlines in the Caribbean. After all these years you own only three planes and the loan on these planes are still being paid..smh..Antigua already making noise for the headquarters. I smell a bit of hypocrisy here.I’m all for a new start. Bickering and finger pointing gets us no where, let the market decide.Relocate the headquarters to the nature island Dominica and see wonders happen. I tend to hear the arguement of this big island small island talk like back in the WICB days. To recreate that somewhere else (hangars, offices, infrastructure) would be a load of some US$30 million on the new owners. Antigua had its share of political appointees, but no appointee from ANY country has ever been competent for a Board or top management position.2. For far too long it has been too expensive to travel throughout the Caribbean.Liat. Why does have to be a competition amongst ourselves. Why is it cheaper to travel to the United States from the Caribbean than it is to go from Antigua to Barbados? Look at LIAT now, it appointed its first female CEO with a financial bank ground, who we all thought would be the game changer LIAT and instead of taking it to a new altitude, it nose dive.I want to know what goin to happen to me I stuck in st Vincent wen I really going bbk to guyana what will happen to my ticketI disagree They should not keep the name LIAT too much mismanagement. That’s not going to happen. Its ridiculously priced for a region that is contributing to such an Airline. Just remove the brunt of the taxes to stimulate travel.Governments being shareholders of an airline unfortunately make it difficult for other operators to enter the market and be competitive. For considerations, let us look at the take-off and landing stresses because of the regions’ geographical makeup; certainly these conditions have not helped. We need to stop bickering amongst our Caribbean brothers and sisters.
Fix this fast.The challenge of airlines in the region have been three fold .Secondly we continue to acknowledge its strategic importance to movement around the islands yet we heavily tax the passengers rather than look to the benefits of increased traffic on economies. Running a country with shareholder’s money. If you are willing to cancel your LIAT Airlines flight then before proceeding it is recommended to get information about LIAT Airlines cancellation policy. The primary focus should be on getting the entire Caribbean region running quickly with an effective and efficient regional air service. But what may replace it – Caribbean Airlines – may be worse for the rest of us. It is the banks that lent money to LIAT to keep it flying with these loans secured by the ability to seize and sell the aircraft and other assets who will get anything in this process.Some people are opining that a new government entity should be formed from LIAT’s ashes. Antigua also had Caribbean Star and Sun, and we all know where those “birds” flew. A serious study need to be done or we will be spinning our new tap in mud. And the time is ripe to introduce ferry services that serve travelers and trade.And the insularity begins. leaving the opportunity for entrepreneurs or other airlines to fill in the gaps.Gloria Paul, which Antiguan mismanaged LIAT?
6% of Liat Airlines passengers traveled with kids under 14.
Surely not a sustainable situation.In my view the governments need to let a privately owned commercial airline or airlines operate to provide the links we need as a region; just provide the support mechanisms to make it affordable for passengers to want to fly, making it viable for the airline(s).One of the things that annoyed me deeply a few years ago was to hear chairman Dr Gansalves declare that Liat cannot be profitable.
Didn’t covid teach us anything.
Let’s just come together, which is what we were trying to do since West Indies federation. We have already forgotten RedJet, and the small 4-engine jet Caribbean ??? Their need to be greater management accountability.Every blessed thing that Government is/has been involved in is horrendously badly managed and LIAT was/is no exception. maybe Mr. AYRE, the islands new Stanford has expressed great interest?Liat has to return on a much smaller scale as a new entity.As far as comments go David Bristol you hit the nail on the head. This is the first of a total of eight ATRs (four 68-seat ATR 72-600s and four 48-seat ATR 42-600s) that will be introduced into LIAT’s fleet. A new government owned or part owned airline will be impossible until the financial footing of the country is on track or risk the wrath of the IMF.The true begining of any “new” regional Caribbean airline is with the COLLAPSING of the Eastern Caribbean Civil Aviation. Wake up my people and stop the bickering. In a globalised world we will ALL suffer alone. It’s said that when construction booms, the economy booms because of the the spin off from employment like carpenters , masons , tilers, electrictions etc.Regional travel can and will do the same for us in things like restaurants , hotels, hired cars and taxi etc. It’s time for LIAT to move back to Barbados. The opportunity now exists for a rethink of how we and our goods travel between the islands.

I would not worry about where the Headquarters will be as It is my understanding that no Caribbean Govt has the finance to fund an Airline, so let whoever is going to throw a life line with a new operation, make all the decisions based on were is best for the future of the their Investment.LIAT 2974 Ltd. Will be liquidated, the first question we must asked and find answer to here is: how did PM Browne arrived to this conclusion? This is a great opportunity to get it right and stimulate regional trade and to do so profitably. It is now the right time to form a new airline under a new name. Were there consultation with economic and business legal expert to determine the best possible course of actions to this end?What form will liquidation take?
