The National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) is providing evacuation support to residents in the Abacos free of charge.  Starting today, BahamasAir planes and private aircraft donated by partners will conduct evacuations from Treasure Cay and Sandy Point, Abaco to New Providence.

Transportation will be provided in Nassau for residents to be housed in local emergency shelters. The Department of Social Services will register evacuees to ensure family and friends can be notified of their status. Fast Ferries is also bringing passengers from Abaco by sea free of charge.
