Air Services Closes Due to Certification Hurdles | Guyana News

After a decade of vital service connecting Guyana’s remote communities, Air Services Limited is shutting down its helicopter operations — not due to safety or capability, but because of years of bureaucratic roadblocks from the Civil Aviation Authority. Despite being a key player in national aviation, the company struggled for seven years to secure its Air Operator Certificate, feeling sidelined rather than supported. They warn that overly complicated regulations are stifling growth and harming the very people who rely on air access. While thanking regulators for past safety contributions and their customers for loyalty, they urge Guyana to adopt a more collaborative approach to aviation licensing — so future companies can thrive and communities stay connected.
