Well, it was time to visit the Bahamas once again and I thought they would have by now cleaned up the airport operation.<\/p>\n
Much to our chagrin, they have not. It was my understanding that a professional operator was going to take , over. The baggage handler indicated that many of the poor performing retail stores had “connections” and there was some hesitance in making that change for fear of losing their locations.<\/p>\n
My poor wife’s mother had to go to one of those disgusting bathrooms at the airport and became very ill at the stench inside. My wife insisted that I contact my company, which is a member of the Florida Chamber (of Commerce), and e-mail an alert to all members of this situation; which I did.<\/p>\n
How can the tourist department of the Bahamian government allow this to continue?<\/p>\n
On another matter I was reading The Tribune and had to chuckle at the local government airline Bahamasair, which apparently closes their reservations at 4:30 pm! No wonder that outfit loses as much money as they do. What was even funnier was when Mr Woods was asked by a reporter from The Tribune about this policy he said: “We are going to change it to 7.30 pm!” Apparently they have never heard of a call centre!<\/p>\n
Thank goodness for a free and Democratic Press!<\/p>\n
