“We need to open the Barbuda Airport. That work is ongoing, and we’re hoping to complete it within a matter of weeks,” announced Fernandez. His statement underscores the urgency and commitment of the government to finalize the project promptly.
The imminent completion of Barbuda Airport holds significant implications for the island’s tourism industry, particularly in catering to high-end travelers who prefer the convenience of private jets.

The reopening of the airport is poised to enhance the island’s appeal, positioning it as a premier destination for elite travelers seeking exclusivity and luxury.
As completion draws near, anticipation is mounting among tourism stakeholders, residents, and potential visitors eager to witness the transformation of Barbuda’s accessibility.
The reopening of the airport not only signifies a logistical milestone but also marks a crucial step toward realizing the full potential of Barbuda’s tourism sector.
With the countdown to the completion date underway, Barbuda is poised to emerge as a beacon for high-end tourism in the Caribbean.
The government’s commitment to this strategic infrastructure project reflects a dedication to unlocking the island’s untapped potential and shaping a successful future as a coveted destination for discerning travelers.

The tarmac can differentiate between the wheel of a private jet and regular passenger plane?
what you mean “reopening”? its a brand new air port. Government got the loan from PLH. Barbudans wont be able to use it for 10years. no local traffic they will need to continue to use the Codrington Village air strip. If you are a journalist you should do your home work. at least travel to Barbuda.
I suppose that airplanes of wealthy people don’t emit any CO2!!!!
