A LIAT aircraft

LIAT the Caribbean Airline’s service is expected to improve significantly with the return of a new plane to its network.

LIAT announced its service was boosted by the return to service of one of its two newly acquired ATR aircraft which was grounded in Barbados for about a week due to a technical issue that has now been resolved.

“Nothing is more important to us than the security and safety of our passengers,” said Mr. Ian Brunton, LIAT’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

The ATR 72, a twin-engine turboprop short-haul regional aircraft, is one of two such planes recently acquired by the company in its fleet modernisation programme.

“Unfortunately, in the aviation business aircraft, both old and new, experience technical issues from time to time, but safety is our major concern and we apologise that our passengers were inconvenienced, especially during the peak summer season, ” Mr. Brunton added.

Reiterating LIAT’s safety focus required immediate action on maintenance concerns, the CEO reported: “The new parts that were needed have arrived and been installed in Barbados – our Maintenance Team has given the aircraft the thumbs up.”

The ATR-600 brings new operational capability to the ATR family through outstanding performance at take-off on short runways, increased max payload, reduced maintenance costs, redesigned cabin, and latest avionics technology.

To improve passenger comfort and operational efficiency LIAT is replacing all of its Dash 8 aircraft with the ATR aircraft.

Later this week, LIAT expects to take delivery of its third new ATR 72 from the France-based manufacturer.

The re-fleeting programme is expected to be completed next year and will see the ageing fleet of Dash 8 aircraft being replaced with 12 brand new ATR-600 series aircraft.

The new fleet will include a mixture of 68- and 48-seaters.

By the first quarter of 2014, more than half of the new ATRs are expected to be operating throughout LIAT’s network, with the remaining airplanes expected to come on line by the end of 2014.

Ten lucky boys from the St. Lucia Boys Training Centre got the chance of a lifetime when Limacol Caribbean Premier League partner Scotiabank hosted an exclusive meet and greet for them with the St. Lucia Zouks.

Accompanied by Scotiabank’s popular Kiddy Cricket mascot Chirpy, the youngsters got autographs and even bowling and batting tips from the hometown team right on the grounds of the Beausejour Cricket Ground.

Captain Darren Sammy and players such as Andre Fletcher and Shoaib Malik mingled and spoke with the boys who also got the opportunity to watch the team up close as they went through their practice drills.

Scotiabank representative Donna Augustin, a personal banking associate at the Rodney Bay branch, said the meet and greet was Scotiabank’s way of bringing together both its community outreach and its long-standing support for cricket.

“Scotiabank has a deep connection with cricket, through our sponsorship of Kiddy Cricket and now the Caribbean Premier League. And we also have a deep connection with young people as we do a lot of outreach activities involving youth, including working with the boys at the BTC. We wanted them to be able to experience some of the CPL fun and we thought this would be a great way to include them.”

Elvin Germain, Activities Coordinator of the Boys Training Centre, said the young wards “enjoyed every minute of the interaction with Zouks team” and added: “We are hopeful that the memories created will be embedded in [their] minds and hearts.”

Caribbean destinations seeking to attract additional air service will discover the secrets to success from a senior executive of one of the world’s leading carriers at the region’s leading tourism gathering in Martinique in October.

Christine Kennedy, Delta Airlines’ general manager for international network planning and scheduling for the Caribbean and Latin America, will explain the route planning process and what influences the airline’s decisions when it considers flying into new destinations, when she addresses delegates on the opening day of the State of the Industry Conference.

Kennedy will join a panel entitled, “Fasten your Seatbelts” at which airline experts will bring stimulating and insightful thoughts on volatile and sometimes controversial aviation issues.

“As a representative of Delta’s Latin American and Caribbean network planning team, I look forward to participating on the panel in October and providing insight regarding the route planning process,” said Kennedy.

“My presentation will discuss what factors drive Delta’s decisions to implement new service and what a destination can do to positively influence that outcome.”

The State of the Industry conference which brings together decision-makers from the public and private sectors, academics, government officials, hoteliers, travel professionals and journalists from the region and around the world, will be held from 15-18 October in Martinique.

The NWU has since submitted a memorandum of proposals in a draft industrial document which will guide the negotiation process, the release said.
