Hi Everyone,

20140809TasteslikehomeA couple of weeks ago, I was among a planeload of passengers (90% of which were Guyanese) checked in on a LIAT flight to Guyana. Each one of us was going to Guyana for different reasons. The majority of the passengers, like me, live outside of Guyana and a few were returning home after vacationing and working in other parts of the Caribbean.

Those of us travelling directly from Barbados had checked in mid-morning while those in transit were there from very early in the morning. After three announcements at one-hour intervals of the delay of the flight, we were told that our flight was cancelled.
