Liberty Caribbean prepared for 2026 Hurricane Season

Published on June 8, 2026

Liberty Caribbean, the operators of Flow, Liberty Business and BTC, has confirmed its state of readiness for the 2026 Atlantic Hurricane Season, which officially begins on June 1.

With more than a century of service across the Caribbean, the company continues to strengthen its preparedness, resilience, and emergency response capabilities to support customers, governments, and communities throughout the region during periods of crisis.

The announcement follows the significant impact of Hurricane Melissa in Jamaica last year, which reinforced the critical importance of resilient communications infrastructure and rapid response capabilities across the Caribbean.

“Hurricane Melissa reminded us once again that connectivity is far more than technology. In moments of crisis, it becomes a lifeline for families, businesses, emergency responders, and governments,” said Inge Smidts, Chief Executive Officer, Liberty Caribbean.

Over the past year, Liberty Caribbean has continued to make strategic investments to strengthen its networks and improve disaster resilience across multiple markets.

In Jamaica, this included major investments in a new and enhanced mobile network, expanded spectrum capabilities, strengthened transport diversity, hardened infrastructure, backup power systems, and additional redundancy measures aimed at improving reliability and accelerating recovery.
