The new airport at Montserrat is definitely open, and WinAir flies there several times a day from ANU and SXM. Agree that the Montserratans are very helpful and friendly. Seeing the former capital of Plymouth buried in ten feet of ash is a fascinating and surreal experience; hearing the stories that people have to tell is unforgettable.
