Video: Bermuda’s Airport Is Back In Business
Bermuda’s airport is now back in business, with the first commercial passenger plane since Hurricane Nicole landing at just past 1.00pm this afternoon [Oct 14].
Hurricane Nicole — a Category 3 hurricane packing maximum sustained winds near 115 mph [185 km/h] — made its closest approach to us just over 24 hours ago, and since that time the airport has reopened, the Causeway has reopened, and BELCO has restored power to over 18,000 customers.

It’s amazing isn’t it. 24 hours ago we were all hunkered down – now this. Seems like a dream already
Very happy there was no loss of life! I am looking forward to visiting Bermuda Monday onboard Anthem of The Seas.
Hope you enjoy the stay! Come back next time June or July. Best time of year to enjoy the beach and coral reefs
Great job all. Belco; EMO; RBR! Job well done!!
Also the BPD and BFD! (Always on the front line!)
Im proud to be Bermudian! BIG UP!!!
Fortunately the OBA Government took all precautions and prepared the Island, now let’s get on with a new Airport
Vote OBA I say!
