LIAT alliance Virgin Atlantic section

It would appear that Virgin Atlantic do not have a baggage transfer agreement with LIAT. Bags have to be checked in again at the airport e.g. Antigua. Passengers have to go through immigration, pick-up bags, go through customs, check-in baggage at LIAT desk, go through emmigration and security checks. The reason for this is the differing baggage allowances between the two airlines. A full allowance on Virgin Atlantic would result in an excess baggage charge on LIAT. The following was received from Virgin Atlantic customer services (17/11/2011):

e-mail: customer.services@fly.virgin.com Enquiry Ref: 1334008/CCUCRW/1

"Virgin Atlantic does not have an agreement with Liat for your bags to be checked through, so you will need to check your bags in separately for both flights. I would also advise to check Liat's baggage allowance, as it may be a different allowance to our flight."

I can confirm this is correct having transferred through Antigua on 20/01/2012

If an alliance agreement does exist I think it needs to be clarified.

LIAT ceased - 01/24

LIAT have been ceasing all their operations in 01/24.^[1] Lellyhatesanimals (talk) 12:32, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

LIAT appears to have recommenced scheduled operations?

I've recently seen reports of LIAT having returned as a new company, LIAT (2020). I haven't edited the article as I am unsure if this article is only supposed to contain information about LIAT (1974), or about the airline in its entirety. Apparently it held its inaugural flight on 6 August.

Here are some of the reports I have seen:
