AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Tourism Leadership: Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority appoints Charmaine Spencer as Chief Marketing Officer and Shermain Jeremy as Director of Tourism for the Caribbean and Latin America, as stay-over arrivals rise 7% in Q1 2026 and the destination pushes deeper into global markets. Global Spotlight: Antigua and Barbuda lands major UK exposure with a BBC MasterChef Finals Week episode filmed at Nelson’s Dockyard and Jumby Bay, showcasing local chefs and Antiguan cuisine. Connectivity Boost: LIAT (2020) and Air Caraïbes sign an interline agreement for single-ticket travel and through-checked baggage across the Caribbean and onward to Europe via Paris-Orly. Culture & Community: Twelve new members are sworn in to the Festivals Commission Board under the 2026 Act, tasked with overseeing Antigua Carnival and the One Nation Festival. Safety Update: Police seek suspects after a wounding and robbery of two vessel crew members near Heritage Quay; one victim is treated on scene, the other is in hospital (serious but stable). Infrastructure & Tourism Assets: Cabinet backs government-led redevelopment of Fort James Beach into a heritage and leisure attraction, including shoreline protection and vendor spaces. Language Policy: A new editorial argues Spanish as a second official language could strengthen ties with Latin America and better integrate the Spanish-speaking community.
