Antigua Airways pitches Africa-Caribbean aviation linkages

Antigua Airways has framed its current operational push as a project to promote Africa-Caribbean linkages, according to a press release covered in the Daily Observer. There is no high-frequency direct air service between any Caribbean nation and any West African nation; travellers route through London, Paris, or Atlanta. The Antigua positioning fits a broader pattern — earlier this month the Antigua Observer reported on a Church of Pentecost mission led by Apostle Dr. Michael Agyeman-Amoako visiting from the US, an example of the Ghana-Caribbean institutional connection that already runs through diaspora communities but largely without direct travel infrastructure.
