Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s Minister of Tourism, Foreign Affairs & Immigration, Hon. Charles \u201cMax\u201c Fernandez said, \u201cIt\u2019s exciting to be adding additional travel opportunities that will appeal to business and leisure travelers. It is the latest development in our international appeal as a leading warm weather destination. Delta\u2019s decision to expand its services from New York and Atlanta to Antigua is a testament to the wonderful offerings our islands have. This is a prodigious collaboration and we believe that the best results are ahead of us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Colin C. James, Chief Executive Officer of the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority added: \u201cDelta\u2019s new flight is indicative of the confidence the airline has in Antigua and Barbuda as a premier Caribbean destination. Our destination offers a vacation product that is available at a range of price points and unparalleled selection of activities. We are confident that through Delta\u2019s expansion of its flights out of New York and Atlanta we will increase our visitor arrivals from these important gateways, providing travellers with easy access for them to visit and enjoy all that we have to offer\u201d.<\/p>
