ABAA Issues Reminder on Kite-Flying Restrictions Near VC Bird International Airport
By Cory Wayland
The Antigua and Barbuda Airport Authority (ABAA) is reminding the public to refrain from kite-flying within the designated no-fly zone surrounding the VC Bird International Airport, particularly during the Easter season.
The authority highlights that kite-flying in restricted areas poses a serious risk to aircraft approaching or departing the airport. The no-fly zone includes areas such as Five Islands, parts of Cedar Grove, Piggotts, Osbourn, and other surrounding communities.
ABAA urges all residents and visitors to comply with these safety measures and thanks the public for their cooperation.
Wishing everyone a safe and joyful Easter.
