Nassau, Bahamas - Officials of the Ministry of Tourism
and Aviation, The Bahamas Air Traffic Controllers Union and various
Aviation stakeholders participated in a one-day National Aviation forum
at the Wyndham Nassau Resort on Tuesday, April 18. The stakeholders
met to discuss ways to strengthen aviation services in the country.
The Government is currently holding discussions with the Inter-American

expand aviation in The Bahamas. It is anticipated that the funds would
be used to implement safety regulations in the industry and also to
expand night flight services to the Family Islands among other plans.
