There’s a New Way to Fly Nonstop to Antigua and Barbuda

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - November 21, 2021

Frontier Airlines is launching another new nonstop route to the Caribbean, with service from Orlando to Antigua and Barbuda. 

The low-cost carrier will kick off its new nonstop flights on Dec. 4, with service weekly on Saturdays, just ahead of what’s projected to be a very strong holiday season for the destination. 

“Enjoy beautiful planes, excellent service, and huge savings when you fly Frontier Airlines from Orlando, Florida to the gorgeous Caribbean island of Antigua this winter,” Elite Island Resorts’ the destinations leading all-inclusive company, said in a statement.

Elite’s Antigua portfolio includes The Verandah, Hammock Cove, the St James’s Club; Galley Bay and the Pineapple Beach Club. 

All of those properties are now open to travelers; all those 16 and up must show proof of vaccination to enter.

That slightly mirrors Antigua and Barbuda’s entry protocols, which stipulate that all travelers 18 and up must have taken at least one vaccine shot. (You can find more here). 

The new flight launch comes as Antigua and Barbuda was recently named Best Honeymoon Destination in the Caribbean at the CJ Travelers’ Choice Awards 2021
