Meanwhile, at the premiere of the BVI, Natalio Wheatley welcomed LIAT 20 to the BVI and said affordable, reliable, and available airlifts are critical to expanding the BVI economy.

“Airlift is important for the growth and expansion of our tourism industry…presently we are witnessing a surge of interest from major airlines and other service providers and markets. The BVI appreciates the role of intraregional transportation in the development of economic opportunities across the Caribbean”, he said

Kye Rymer, the Minister of Communication and Works, emphasized the significance of LIAT 20 for the British Virgin Islands (BVI) and welcomed the partnership.
