Bahamas getting back to business as airports open in Nassau, Grand Bahama Island & other Islands9/13/2017 The Islands in the Bahamas were very fortunate as nearly all of them escaped severe damage from Hurricane Irma. The country is attempting to get back on its feet, as airports are open in Nassau, Grand Bahama Island and on some of its outer Islands; international flights have resumed, including service to some Florida airports, and ports have reopened allowing cruise ships to resume calls.
On the major tourist destinations such as Nassau, Paradise Island, Grand Bahama Island, The Abacos and The Exumas, hotels are resuming normal operations, and are welcoming more guests and visitors are returning to the beaches and attractions. Parts of the southern islands were more heavily impacted with damage ranging from cosmetic, to severe structural damage. Assessment of Ragged Island continues, but other islands, such as Acklins Island, Crooked Island, Inaugua and Mayaguana are mostly cleared. Full assessments throughout the Islands of the Bahamas began Monday, and will continue throughout the week.
