This has also led to the closure of the airport including Norman Manley International Airport of Jamaica where the flights of the Caribbean Airlines landed for the non-stop direct service. Due to the airport closure and dark skies, the flights have been disrupted, stranding passengers in the affected countries.  

Now, Caribbean Airlines announced new flights for the accommodation of the passengers and stated that the airport has reopened, and the people can go to their homes.  

In addition to that, the travellers have also been provided with support during the closure period by the airline.  The Hurricane has devastated the island nations and caused deaths of 10 people so far with the damage to the entire livelihoods.
