MBJ Airports Limited (MBJ), operators of the Sangster International Airport (SIA) in Montego Bay, is advising passengers that today’s (August 16) local Air Canada flights have been cancelled due to the airline’s ongoing labour disruption, which may impact the North American carrier’s flight operations over the next few days.
The affected services are flights AC 982 and AC 983, scheduled to arrive at 11:05 am and depart at noon, respectively.
MBJ Airports is advising Air Canada passengers who were booked to travel today not to proceed to the airport for Saturday’s flights but instead contact the airline for rebooking.
“Additionally, hotel partners are kindly being advised to retain guests travelling via Air Canada and not transport them to MBJ until the situation has been resolved and normal flight operations resume. Note that Air Canada flight operations over the next few days may be impacted,” the operator added.
Rebooking, refund options
All affected Air Canada passengers must contact the airline directly through the following channels to rebook their flight or request a refund:
- Air Canada mobile app
- Website: aircanada.com/mybookings and aircanada.com/action
- Phone: 1-888-247-2262
- Travel agents for those who booked through third parties
In the meantime, Sangster International operations are continuing normally for all other airlines and flights. Passengers travelling on other carriers should check with their respective airlines for any potential impacts.
While these cancellations are beyond its control, the airport operator understands the significant inconvenience these cancellations cause and is monitoring the situation closely to provide updates as soon as more information is available.
