Antigua and Barbuda have launched the British Airways’ direct Heathrow service, which has resumed after a long break of 30 years.

This is a very important  development in the area of tourism. The new destination would provide an inrush of tourists. Furthermore, business people may have the opportunity to quickly move between two destinations, which is also a vital business issue. Last but not least is the fact that the Heathrow-Antigua link may be beneficial for those who invested in tourism in this area.



Charles Fernandez, minister of tourism and investment, said: “We’ve been fighting to get a BA flight out of Heathrow for 30 years, so this is a really big moment for us.”

A chief executive of the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority, Colin James, also said growing demand for this destination in recent times. But, even more importantly, Antigua and Barbuda would be added to the British government’s green list of destinations.

James also highlighted that there was a record number of international visitors in Antigua and Barbuda this June. So, along with other things, the Heathrow-Antigua link may be a reason to think about obtaining Antigua and Barbuda citizenship.
