Jamaica takes shelter
Bristol Post
|October 29, 2025
BRITISH tourists were locked down in their hotels yesterday as life-threatening Hurricane Melissa battered Jamaica.
-
As many as 8,000 British citizens are in the Caribbean country, with people ordered to stay inside to avoid the world’s strongest storm of the year so far.
The Jamaican government has ordered evacuations from high-risk areas, and all of the country’s airports are shut.
A Briton on holiday in Jamaica said he had been ordered to stay in his hotel bathroom until the storm passes.
Andrew Tracey had been due to fly home on Monday before his flight was cancelled. He told Sky News food packages were being delivered to guests, with deck chairs removed from the beach and swimming pools drained at his hotel in the resort of Negril.
