"A nine seater airplane with limited operating range?" --------------------------- If it can fly from the United States to St.Lucia, it shouldn't have any problem flying within the Caribbean region.
Now let's be serious. A nine-seater onloading tourist from a long-distance carrier's flight - with approximately 180 persons disembarking at Hewanorra? That is, with 9 people changing planes to go to the neigbbouring island's sizeable hotel. Come on. This just doesn't make any sense. Journalist, give us the right information; don't insult our intelligence just because we are just small-island St Lucians! This service could we called the hotel's own personal escort service, but this CANNOT be called an AIRLINE.

April 1, 2012 8:28 AM ---------------------------- Wow, I can see your lack of knowledge in aviation operations. This type of airplane was configured with extra fuel tanks and special navigation equipment for the long over water ferry flight to St. Lucia. Under normal operations, with 9 pax and baggage this airplane range will be limited to less than 300 nautical miles for VFR flying only. Operations into Class B airspace like San Juan were the flight plan must carry IFR fuel plus reserve will even reduce its payload.
Harlequin have sold almost 2000 homes at Marquis Estate in St Lucia yet not built any yet, not even started, same in all their other "developments" other than SVG. Assusations of massive fraud follow this company everywhere. Why is that not being reported, and instead a transfer service for their guests that was probably paid for by the same people whose homes have not been built.

This might just be the beginning of a trend. After all, the government of St.Lucia is doing such a lousy job when it comes to
LIAT, REDjet, AA,etc.
why not bring back helen air to avoid the airlift situation we face with redjet, liat etc

Don't hold your breath, now you see it now you don't...

How long will that one last?
Stop attacking for attackings sake! The people said it is an inter island service FOR THEIR CLIENTS.
It is not a general purpose people carrier.

i could be wrong ... i think the private small jet of haliquin.. is supposedly for their hotel guests... and not for regional travellers..
I think you are right
