Tourism Minister Charles Fernandez has welcomed the launch of a new non-stop air service between Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and Antigua, as Sunrise Airways expands its regional footprint to include the twin-island nation.
According to Antigua.news, the minister expressed enthusiasm for the new route, which is expected to strengthen air connectivity between Antigua and Barbuda and the Dominican Republic.
The new non-stop service by Sunrise Airways represents a significant addition to Antigua's international air links, opening a direct corridor between two of the Caribbean's key destinations. Direct routes of this nature are widely regarded as a boost to tourism arrivals, trade, and broader economic activity.
Minister Fernandez's public welcome of the new service signals the government's support for efforts to grow Antigua and Barbuda's aviation network and increase visitor arrivals from across the region.
