During his contribution to the 2024-2025 budget debate in the House Of Assembly last week, Minister of Tourism, Investments and Aviation, the Hon. Chester Cooper announced the government’s plans to merge Bahamasair and Nassau Flight Services.

President of the Airport, Airline and Allied Workers Union (AAAWU), Jewel Fountain along with union members staged a demonstration in May where they spoke against the merger and voiced other concerns.

Cooper told Parliamentarians, “we determined that we would merge this service under NFS creating efficiency and synergy. We will protect the rights and benefits and tenure of all employees. We will consult the union. But we will do ultimately what is in the best interest of the shareholders – that’s all of the Bahamian people.”
