Dignitaries turn out for airport opening

PRIME Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar, Tobago House of Assembly (THA) Chief Secretary Farley Augustine and a host of other dignitaries are set to open the long-awaited $1.2 billion ANR Robinson International Airport terminal tomorrow.

Works and Infrastructure Minister Jearlean John and her team were on the ground on Saturday morning exploring the logistics at the terminal.

“All will be well. The Prime Minister is coming up on Tuesday to declare the airport open so the airport, the new airport on the eastern side, would be open and that is what the exercise is about. First flight Wednesday morning for passengers,” John said.
