AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Fuel & Transport Disruption: LIAT Air is weighing the Tobago–Barbados opportunity after Caribbean Airlines ended its direct service, but both LIAT and interCaribbean say any added capacity depends on demand and avoiding route “races to the bottom.” Energy Costs & Public Pressure: Prime Minister Gaston Browne says Antigua and Barbuda can’t keep subsidising fuel as the US–Iran war drives volatility, with officials warning of about EC$3.50 increases but government moving to EC$2 across the board. Industrial Action at the Pump: Gas station operators threatened a Tuesday strike over profit margins; after closures sparked long lines, most stations reopened within hours. Geothermal Progress (Nevis): Nevis Geothermal Project drilling is set to start within 60 days after a final rig inspection clears mobilisation. Infrastructure for Industry: APUA is pushing a US$25m smart meter overhaul to automate readings and improve customer visibility. Tourism & Development: Antigua Cruise Port’s new Upland Development is on track for an October completion and November opening, adding retail, dining and a day club. Cybersecurity: Government launched an AB govCIRT cyber incident response team to strengthen digital protection. Hospitality Skills: Sandals Grande Antigua managers and supervisors graduate from a hospitality leadership programme with FIU. Whale Protection Push: A coalition launched a petition urging reversal of Antigua & Barbuda’s commercial whaling stance ahead of an international meeting.
