@UKinCaribbean We have had a quote today from British Airways via a company called Volanteus. BA will fly 200 people from Kingston To London Gatwick at a cost of 1085 GBP. Date to be decided depending on number of interested people. Anyone interested?
@AsifAAhmad BA have cancelled all flights for June. We cant get the dog out of Kingston to US and no one will take her in. We texted CTM but didnt get a call back but cant see how that can be an option with a dog and 10 cases. If you hear anything can you post. Thanks
@British_Airways our flight from kin to lon on June 1st is cancelled again for the 3rd time with new dates from 3 July. Our issue is 9 cases and a dog so we need a direct flight. When can you guarantee you will stop cancelling flights
@UKinCaribbean@AsifAAhmad Is this likely to be the last flight for some time? This flight says no pets & 2 bags. We are booked on a flight 1st June. Is the view that this will be cancelled. I'd hate to miss the 7th of may only to find june 1st cancelled but not sure what to do with our dog if we go 7 may
@British_Airways my flight m4d3uh has just been cancelled again despite the flight being fully booked and people desperate to leave. I have nowhere to live. Are there any flights that go through the US rather direct or SEND AN EMPTY PLANE
@British_Airways It's not a lot of use saying get out now options are limited. If one person in the foreign office found out some useful info then it would save thousands of us calling BA and the foreign office helpline. It would also be helpful if BA posted information eg next flight is 1st june
@British_Airways Yes frequently but it's a bit light on in depth information. It would be great if it was a bit more specific. Eg next BA flight is June 1st. You can fly to US on Jet Blue on Saturdays. You will need an ESTA and you are allowed to transfer to Miami for onward flight to the UK
@British_Airways I've contacted the embassy. There is nowhere to register. The embassy retweets rhe official Gov communication saying commercial flights are limited and to return home. Good advice but how? They post an emergency number which I ring. The nice man reads the info on the Gov site
@AsifAAhmad @Antoinette_R_ @USEmbassyJA@FCOtravel@DHSgov I couldnt fly home until after 5th april as my contract didnt end until then. I was told if I landed in FLL I couldnt get the bus TO MIA as i would have to quarantine. Phone the emergency number and they read to me from the website and told me to ring the number I had just rang
@AndrewHolnessJM You have to subtract 32 from that number as there are 27 recovered and 5 deaths which means there are 164 active cases. 164 cases represents .006% of the population. In 2019 there were 9159 cases of dengue and 67 deaths. UK say they will have a vaccine by sept
@AsifAAhmad To keep myself sane I have created a programme which businesses can follow to help them reduce costs post covid 19.I offered the programme foc on linked in. If your high commission or a business interested let me know as I'm just uploading it onto a digital learning platform
