The Barbadians who have been stranded in St. Lucia since Tuesday are due to return to Barbados tonight.
Starcom Network News understands that Air Antilles will make an aircraft available to the group at around 11pm.
The group who left Barbados for the Carnival festivities in St. Lucia and St. Vincent, were stranded after no flights were available as a result of industrial action by the flight crews of Air Antilles.
Starcom Network News also understands that officials at the George F.L Charles airport in Castries will extend operations beyond its 8pm closing period to facilitate the special flight for all affected passengers travelling to Barbados.
