Air Peace to begin regular flights into Antigua by 2025
The Nigerian airline, Air Peace, has partnered with the government of Antigua and Barbuda to establish LIAT 2020.
Prime Minister Gaston Browne announced that Air Peace will soon commence regular commercial flights to Antigua and Barbuda, possibly by the end of this year or no later than the first quarter of 2025.
Browne expressed gratitude for this partnership and emphasized that the collaboration aims to go beyond LIAT 2020 by facilitating regular flights from Nigeria to V.C. Bird International Airport (VCBIA).
These flights will also benefit LIAT 2020 as the airline will transport passengers to other Caribbean destinations, with VCBIA serving as the hub for Air Peace.
The partnership seeks to boost tourism in Antigua and Barbuda by facilitating the travel of Nigerian tourists.
Browne assured that measures have been put in place to address past issues and ensure the smooth arrival of high-end tourists from Nigeria.
