Hi...
I'm looking at booking LHR to GCM which stops over in NAS to offload passengers. A couple of questions:
1. Do passengers continuing to GCM stay on board the aircraft?
2. Are new passengers take on board travelling NAS to GCM?
3. Is it the same crew continuing to GCM or does a new crew fly NAS-GCM-NAS?
Thanks in advance,
Ben

2. yes new passengers can taken on board, never very many though, majority are LON-GCM
3. as mentioned crew layover in NAS, on a combination of trips between 4 and 7 days. Generally they will operate 1 shuttle to and from GCM (things may change with trip patterns when PLS comes back via NAS next year).
During transit stop, new crew board and get handover from crew leaving in NAS. They then carry out all safety and security checks, as well as ID of all handbaggage (it REALLY helps speed things up if passengers remain seated for the 3-4 minutes it takes.
Full clean is carried out in GCM, with only transit clean in NAS.
