AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Ebola Border Watch: Antigua and Barbuda is tightening entry rules as officials move to bar people who’ve been in designated Ebola outbreak areas within 45 days, while reinstating enhanced airport screening and thermal scanners at VC Bird International. Air Connectivity Shock: Caribbean Airlines says it will cut routes and frequencies affecting Antigua and Barbuda, with passengers to be contacted as the carrier restructures and explores codeshare options. West Africa Link: Prime Minister Gaston Browne confirmed the inaugural Air Peace Lagos flight will bypass Antigua and land in Barbados first, with onward travel for about 25 passengers via LIAT under heightened health protocols. Tourism Momentum: Antigua and Barbuda reported record-breaking tourism growth, including a 7% jump in first-quarter stayovers and strong cruise projections, alongside calls to reduce “leakage” from tourism spending. Sports Tourism: Run in Paradise’s 10th edition drew a record international field, with Alex Beach setting a new half-marathon course record in Antigua. Local Governance & Infrastructure: Works on All Saints Road will trigger a night detour between Fresh and Easy and D’cravinz, with signage and flag persons in place. Policy Agenda: The Throne Speech outlines a 25-year development blueprint, including a major shift toward transforming the Medical Benefits Scheme into national health insurance.
