Antigua and Barbuda Students in Jamaica to Be Housed at Hotel During Storm

As Tropical Storm Melissa looms over Jamaica, the Government of Antigua and Barbuda has swiftly organized temporary shelter for its students studying in the region. Starting Saturday, October 25, 2025, the students will be accommodated at the prestigious Jamaica Pegasus Hotel for a two-night stay. The arrangement includes complimentary meals—breakfast, lunch, and dinner—with specific restrictions, and rooms will be shared between two students. To avail of this provision, students must present a valid Antigua and Barbuda passport and their student ID. Authorities have assured that the situation will be reevaluated post-storm. In the event of an evacuation, Prime Minister Gaston Browne has pledged to arrange a charter flight to ensure the students’ safe return home. Check-in at the hotel will commence from midday on Saturday.
