Read today in La Prensa, a Honduras newspaper, that a team from ICAO will be evaluating Toncontin airport for a possible reopening and usage by regular airliners. It is expected that they start their assesment tomorrow. After their report is issued, all interested parties will hold a meeting to determine how they will procceed with all the recommendations that ICAO would issue to enhance safety.

Also, read in another newspaper that United will cease operations to Honduras by September 2, but mentioning that it is because of fuel costs. They fly the Tegucigalpa - Los Angeles route (well, it used to be from Toncontin).
