the power and stability of the brand, but the belief the company has in the potential of the Caribbean. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sadler added that his own airline has benefited from the Sandals Effect, recalling when the company took its Beaches brand to the Turks and Caicos Islands some 27 years ago, \u201cthat by itself drove a lot of tourism, but it also drove economic activity, the need for more employees, and for Inter-Caribbean it was one of those early developments of connecting the Turks and Caicos particularly with Jamaica, the Dominican Republic and other islands that set us on the path of growth.\u201d<\/p><div id=\"antig-1173588206\" class=\"antig-content_2 antig-entity-placement\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.courts.com\/antigua\/\" aria-label=\"500X500 (1)\"><img

to his own Chairman and Founder Lyndon Gardiner, \u201cMr. Stewart would stop in and he would say hello to Lyndon, he would always give him some counsel, some guidance, and \u2018Butch\u2019 Stewart

People take on board this whole new realisation that because we change the name of the country doesn\u2019t mean it take hours and hours to get there.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sadler also underscored the importance of events like the STAR Awards, \u201cThe US is a key source market for us as an airline, as well as Sandals, so having the opportunity to speak to the top roughly 400 travel agents of the US, Canada and the UK is not a value you can put a number on.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sadler further surprised attending travel advisors by giving away two tickets to each of them to destinations where Inter-Caribbean flies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sandals\u00ae Resorts offers the ease and refinement of the most-awarded luxury all-inclusive vacation experience in the Caribbean. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With 18 beachfront settings in Jamaica, Antigua, Saint Lucia, The Bahamas, Barbados, Grenada, Cura\u00e7ao, and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, each resort reflects the design, cuisine, and unique essence of its island home. From butler service and gourmet dining to top-shelf spirits and luxurious suites, including the Caribbean\u2019s first Overwater Villas and Bungalows, Sandals Resorts is celebrated for pioneering innovations that constantly evolve and elevate the all-inclusive vacation experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The brand has recently piloted fresh concepts such as MINI Coopers for exploring beyond the resort gates and an off-site Island Inclusive dining program, while staying true to its Caribbean roots and showcasing the transformative link between tourism and its power to transform lives through its philanthropic arm, the Sandals Foundation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sandals Resorts is part of family-owned Sandals Resorts International (SRI) which includes family-friendly Beaches Resorts, and is the Caribbean&#8217;s leading all-inclusive resort company.
