Monday, August 13, 2018 – The Turks and Caicos Islands Airports Authority (TCIAA) expresses apologies to our Stakeholders and traveling public for all disruption of flight operations at the JAGS McCartney International Airport, Grand Turk.
This disruption of flight operations is due to inadequate Fire Service coverage. Due to the safety concerns, the facility was not able to accommodate Air Traffic at JAGS McCartney International Airport.
Currently all efforts are being made to restore safe flight operations.
The Airports Authority will inform the General Public once flight operations are able to resume.
