Fast Track arrival service is VIP travel assistance that allows you to cruise past people disembarking from planes and skip long lines at immigration and customs. When you arrive at Grantley Adams International Airport in Barbados, you will be met just outside the arrival’s hall by a representative dressed in pink and black, holding a sign that displays your name. Identify yourself to our representative, who will escort you to the Immigration kiosk, on to baggage claim, and then to our dedicated Customs line before exiting the Terminal. Wait times depend on number of flights arriving at the same time/the efficiency of the baggage handling. You are responsible for identifying and collecting all checked bags from the luggage carousel. You can procure the services of an authorized airport porter known as "Red Caps" to assist with bags at a nominal fee. Arrivals that take place or are completed between midnight and 6:00 am will incur a supplemental cost of 50% of the fast track rate.
