See, this is why Stewy is the big boss! When we left March 19th, my buddy who always transports us had trouble figuring out where to go. It's marked but not very clearly. Then when you get dropped off... Ugh. It might make sense when it's completed, but right now it's kinda confusing. Blessings to you always Stewy for these videos. You do more for Jamaica than you realize.
As I've said before, the north coast has some of the most fantastic scenes. You Stewy have been giving us some exciting shots and narrative. Just hope the police can get the crime under control then it would really be paradise.
It’s important for the airport to keep modernizing as this airport is so busy. Great that you keep us up to date on the projects so as we get there it’s not a big surprise. Once again thanks for the great info ✈️
Stewy I love your commitment to showcasing all aspects of Jamaican general aviation. I'm impressed with the progess since I last saw it in January. Also those e-gates are a significant improvement. Jamaica is now competing with the developed world. I was just in Dubai and I saw how efficient they can be.
Thanks Nicholas, I'm impressed with the growth of the countries aviation and happy to document it, I think those e gates will go a long way in improving Service, have a blessed one my brother
About time Jamaica do some improvement in our international airport, I have experience long wait time in the arrival terminal, I am looking forward to see the change, thank you for the update
@@veronapowell-or7qk You are most welcome Verona, lots of improvement presently happening in the immigration and security building, have a great rest of your evening and thanks for watching
We were there back in February and these changes weren't compete then. Looks good and those E-gates work very well. They did speed up the process. Thanks for the work you. Bless
The expansion has been going for awhile, the runway has been extended, there are videos from the beginning, check out the the playlist titled airport expansion on my channel, have a blessed one and thanks for watching
Great great video ❤❤❤ thank you stewy for sharing these amazing info god bless you always I just had a dream of the sangster international airport ✈️ seeing this beautiful iron bird flying over iron shore Montego bay thank you archangel Michael 😇 🐯 for pulling off this project the man child that rules the rod of iron ✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️🇺🇲🇯🇲 and the 🌍🏆🙏🏾
The government should assist the people living in Flanker to relocate..this would be an excellent idea to extend the airport. This l believe sees many more flights coming and going out of this busy airport.
@@lawrencedavidson6195at least there could be more parking spots for aircraft that will stay over night. Improving the infrastructure around the airport is magical for the city
@@larrysmith3102 Actually there's lots of overnight parking for aircraft, but the airport charges for overnight parking so airlines shy away from dong so.
I think it's an improvement. Does control and direct traffic efficiently. Traveled out of Mobay earlier this month. Was pleased as there's space for drop-offs without being rushed.
Nice video! Can see the reasons why so many persons have asked for better signage. Also, I see you came from the Jimmy Cliff Blvd end. How is the approach from Ironshore end or Queens Blvd ska top rd end? Getting around the roundabout and all the way left seems like it could be more challenging. While it may not be be so easy and costly, feel like they should have just removed the roundabout and made a four way intersection with traffic lights and some fly over under lanes there.
@@1STEWY All these tourists coming in are loading up TEF coffers, instead of fancy signs, this is where they should spend the funds. The roundabout has outlived its usefulness and in reality, it is a 4-way intersection. A good engineer could rework it into a nice intersection and being on a hillside helps. Even the 20 million pretty sign can work its way back into the project.
The left merge to depatures is too sudden, a bit narrow and better signage is needed.. Would be good to use the blue and white signs and better text or symbols... The exit right from the departure section where you have to wait on this long line of traffic before going all the way to the right to exit the airport needs rethinking. We need a spit level airport Departures up up Arrival below), a extra runway and at least 11 more gates. 5-6 planes waiting to park is getting out of hand. It doesn't have to be extravagant where its a 20 overpass but enough that tour buses can pass under. And insted of those distracting yellow barriers use jersey ones with reflectors.
I think they will continue to improve and will definitely get better as the regular users become more familiar with the new, more gates needed for sure, do have a great evening and thanks for watching
I was at the airport recently, and I was shocked to see how dated and filthy the arrival area of the airport is. The departure area is not bad, but man, was I disappointed to see so many people assembled outside of arrival area doing nothing. And, why they don't trim the grass and cut the bushes near the runway area? Blessed love
I don't see designated places for vehicles to stop and unload in the departure area. Also, the longer approach will waste critical time when trying to make a flight. The arrival approach should have been the one lengthened. It doesn't appear that they have made any changes to the arrivals pickup area, which can be crazy as well.
Good day I have a question hoping someone can assist me is there secure pay car parking at Sangster International Airport if I need to leave my car for a few days ? Like it is at NMIA KINGSTON. Thankyou.
Traffic planners at MBJ are a joke IMO. The zoo at passenger pickup remains, I would expect. Abuse of the fees paid by every passenger. Absolutely no advantage to the new back road into departures. They could have made the 'departures" lane 4, closest to the parking lot, a no-stopping zone
I had to endure an advertisement in the middle and one at the end. Exactly how much J$ did that generate with the 5K views on 12.8K subscribers? Please consider suspending it for awhile. I gave an upvote to help the channel appear on more 'recommended' lists.
they keep making these miniscule improvement without any future thoughts and come 3 to 5 year down the line they have to do another one Why don't they just make a multi story parking garage with a higher ground floor and move the rent a car there so they can have more space in arrival instead of using up soo much prime space for single level parking?
They're not done. This is on-going. The masterplan which they are currently implementing when concluded will have 1. Expanded departing and arrivals lobby 2. Separation of incoming and departing traffic 3. Additional gates 4. Modernization of the terminal 5. Expansion of immigration hall 6. Additional parking lots 7. Airport Hotel 8. Additional retail spaces
Keep the great content coming bro

Bless up Chris, I think it will get better as it gets finalized and become the new norm, have a great day now and thanks again
I think if signage of departures, arrivals and exits is marked or painted on the road it would also be an asset. Their will be no confusion
Does make sense I hope they do
True,proper road making, signs, etc

Yes Stewy good one a lot of videos made on driving to NMIA but we don’t see it done to Sangster’s enough
Thanks Greg, have a great evening now

Good one Stewy the separation of arrival and departure entrance going to ease congestion and make it quick to get in and out of the airport.
Thanks Donald I think so too, sorry for the late response do enjoy the rest of your day and thanks for watching

Thanks for watching Jennifer, I like the idea too, do have a blessed evening

They also need multi-storey parking so they don't take up so many space!

will there be more updates on this work
@@devaughncampbell2870 most definitely devaughn ,as it progresses and there's a noticeable change we will give on update
Any improvement to the air condition system?

Hopefully immigration wait gets better
US money is doing good
The direction sighns are in the wrong place.
What ever is necessary to make it work will be done, bless up
It's a bit confusing from a Canadian citizen
Sorry about that, not sure if you are talking about my explanation or your experience there

The parking lots also have solar panels as their roofs. When completed, MBJ airport may have the largest solar array in the Caribbean.
Agreed about multilevel parking. The solar panels can always be on the top floor of the garage.
@@MichaelMartin-mi8in That would make the solar array too small to be effective. They are doing the sensible thing.
