BA chief to speak at Caribbean conference

Monday, 29 Jul, 2011 0

British Airways chief executive Keith Williams will give the key note speech at the Caribbean Tourism Organisation’s first State of the Industry conference, in St Martin from September 14-17.

Williams’ speech follows last year’s address by former chief executive Willie Walsh at the Leadership Strategy Conference.

“Together with our colleagues in the Caribbean, we look forward to re-inforcing the region’s position as a luxury leisure destination,” said Williams.  “With such a diverse range of islands, it’s no surprise that these routes continue to be a firm favourite for British and international travellers.”

British Airways has 64 flights a week to 15 destinations in the Caribbean.

CTO secretary general Hugh Riley said: “The CTO is  delighted to welcome Mr Williams to the region.  British Airways has reinforced its position as a truly committed partner in the Caribbean with the introduction of new routes and frequences this year and we are keen to know how we can support the airline to bring further benefits to the region.

“The conference will look at the current state of the Caribbean tourism industry and how to deal with issues that impact the sector, with a view to building for the future and of course BA will play a major part in this.”
