I heard the flight was terrible. If that’s the case hopefully it gets better in the future
And it start with our West Indian people with negative comments already, we are never satisfied regardless if it’s good or bad. That’s because some of us are not use to much.

Heard the flight had a few bumps. New route jitters are expected, but consistency will determine if LIAT turns a corner.”
You can’t get away from a few bumps while traveling most airlines experience that it’s turbulence up in the sky
