Flamingo Air Grounded After Deadly Crash | Bahamas News
Description
A fatal plane crash near San Andros Airport on Friday claimed ten lives, turning a day of celebration into national mourning. The Cessna 402, operated by Flamingo Air, went down moments before landing — a tragedy that follows a pattern of safety failures. Just hours earlier, another Flamingo Air flight had to return to Nassau after an unspecified issue and later caught fire. The airline, already plagued by past incidents including a viral door-opening mid-flight, a runway excursion, and a crash landing in South Bimini, now faces a suspended operating certificate. Despite its vital role connecting remote islands, Flamingo Air’s future hangs in the balance as investigators race to uncover the cause — with officials urging the public to avoid speculation while a full probe unfolds.
