Barbados departure tax

Does this still exist? I can't remember if we paid it on our last visit?
Thanks

Tripadvisor says no.

I think I am going to start camping out outside T-2 at LAS and start demanding a US departure tax, I wonder how many would pay it.....and who will bail me out of jail.

According to this link, it is one of those taxes that is normally included in the cost of the airline ticket.

Never quite got the grips of countries that do this. St Lucia still charge the 'departure' tax.

Siem Reap also had this when we left Cambodia.

It still exists (BDS 55). As mentioned above it's been 'integrated' into the ticket price - best place for it. They also raised it just before the cricket world cup to from BDS25, which went down really well in the local press [:)]

Wasn't that also when the airport was a complete building site?

It was, you couldn't move for boarded up shops, piles of plasterboard and general building paraphernalia. It is much better now though, even if they charge almost double for a Banks than anywhere else on the island [V]
