The Coast Guard extends a no-fly zone near a Caribbean airport for two more years

The US Coast Guard is keeping a temporary safety zone in place near Cyril E. King Airport in St. Thomas, USVI. This means boats and people cannot enter the waters near the airport without special permission until the end of 2025.

This rule prevents vessels from getting too close to low-flying aircraft near the airport. It ensures safety for both air and sea traffic in that specific area. The extension suggests the underlying hazard has not been resolved, requiring continued restrictions on marine activity.
