The BVI Airports Authority is informing the travelling public that the Terrance B. Lettsome International Airport has re-opened following a brief closure earlier today, July 17.  The airport will be operational to international traffic on July 18.

Meanwhile, Officer-in-Charge Mr. Ronnie Lettsome has advised that the airports on Virgin Gorda and Anegada will remain closed temporarily as a result of operational issues within the Fire Service.   Mr. Lettsome added that all efforts are being made to bring resolution to the issue which would allow the resumption of normal operations.

The BVI Airports Authority apologises for any inconvenience caused due to the closure of the airports and thanks the travelling public for its indulgence as it seeks to ensure that safety is maintained at all times.
