Bermuda Government, U.S. Consulate and Delta Provide Additional Relief Flights
The Ministry of Tourism and Transport advises that the Bermuda Government and Skyport, through negotiations with the U.S. Consulate and Delta Air Lines, has arranged for U.S. Nationals to be flown home.
Delta will operate relief flights between Bermuda and Atlanta on March 21, 22, 23 and 24.
The flight crew arriving from Atlanta will remain on board the plane and then depart with the outbound passengers.
The public will be notified if opportunities for Bermudian students and residents to return home arise.
“The situation in the U.S. mirrors that of Canada with many Nationals stranded outside their home country and unable to secure a flight back home.”, said Minister of Tourism and Transport, the Hon. Zane DeSilva, “Fortunately, due to the joint efforts of the Bermuda Government, the Airport and Civil Aviation Authorities, Skyport, U.S. Consulate and Delta, we can successfully reunite Americans in Bermuda with their loved ones.”
U.S. Nationals wishing to return can book these flights through Delta.com or by using the FlyDelta app. Delta advises that there are very long waits for those wanting to book a flight by telephone.
