Last minute strikes which these union pull should definitely be illegal it cost their employers who give them jobs hundreds of thousand literally threatening the collapse of the airline, it permanently damages Bahamasair's reputation, and cost traveller's hundreds of dollars in losses.
It damages the entire countries reputation and hurts local hotels & workers. I don't think striking should be banned but you can't strike without warning. This was damaging to the entire country and quite selfish.
And who is going to take the resources to fly weekly to San Salvador, Acklins, Inagua, Abaco, Exuma, etc.
A state-owned Airline is essentially to national development and transportation. Nobody else is willing to do it and if so it will be at higher cost for Bahamians.
Things in this country got built by government organization or intervention. Mismanagement isn't an excuse to sell of our assets completely.
Yep, this is it exactly. I was always instructed to never swim at night and come out of the water at dusk by my parents. Wouldn't dare stray from it now.
But some individuals seem like they lose all commonsense when it comes to the beauty.
Privatization isn't going to fix the problems we have now, its just going to strip any funds the airline receives to make profit for a CEO.
Ticket pricing will rise and service won't improve. The reason Bahamasair is in the hole it is, Is lack of proper investment in critical areas and poor management. Making it private doesn't make these things magically happen.
We saw exactly with BTC and BPL that privatization isn't a fix-all answer, furthermore our country heavily relies on airfare for national development, a nationalized Bahamasair ensure Bahamians have a say in travel cross country instead of a big-boss even worse a foreign boss.
In sensible countries a portion of every lottery house ticket goes to a state charity who distributes the money. Over here it is the opposite and yet we wonder why certain things are the way they are.
So if they were to hop on a flight to Canada there no alert to notify that flight risk criminals are present? Or is he saying they don't have intentions to track them.
It's disgusting isn't it, They find any reason to talk 1960s racism, even if it is for "positive" means. Great we have majority rule but can the majority of Bahamian politicians not be crooks.
The "Sunshine Boys" need to reflect on the racket they are running.

Selling out Bahamian entrepreneurs, vendors, and worker for "some jobs" and ever increasing profit for foreign corporations. Amazing
