LIAT at the crossroads again

Feb 18, 2013

ST. JOHN’S, Antigua - Four weeks ago Minister of Tourism John Maginley sounded a positive note in announcing new aircraft leases for our embattled airline, LIAT. Our headline writers were positively euphoric in declaring “LIAT’s flying high again – Tourism Boss”. As encouraging as the news might have been, it is far too optimistic to assume that LIAT’s problems are over. This, of course, is typical of government enterprises in which the smallest bit of good news is promoted as the solution to all problems.
