Cheers: To the U.S. Coast Guard, which has been extremely busy this season with numerous marine rescues, drug-smuggling arrests and an influx of migrants attempting to reach our shores. Our thanks go out to all of those crew members and leaders who protect our island and save many boaters from a watery death. Jeers: To the understaffed Key West International Airport, which continues to add new airlines and more flights than it can capably handle. From passengers waiting more than 30 minutes on the tarmac to deplane due to lack of equipment, to the standing-room-only departure and baggage claim areas, itâs time to rethink this âprogressâ and pace new business expansion with the services the airport is currently equipped to provide.
