CJIA says baggage scanner down, backup being used until machine fixed
See below the full release from the CJIA:
The CTX 5800 scanner at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport has been temporarily taken out of service, due to damage to the rotating gantry caused by an oversized bag. We are awaiting the arrival of a replacement part from the manufacturer.
In the interim, passenger luggage is being screened using our backup scanner. CJIA maintains adequate redundancy in its scanning equipment to ensure that security and safety are not compromised during this period.
The local agent for the CTX 5800 manufacturer is working diligently to expedite the delivery of the replacement part and have the scanner returned to service as quickly as possible.
We appreciate the public’s understanding and patience as we work to resolve this issue.
