The New-Look LIAT Is Adding Another Caribbean Island: St Vincent

By: Guy Britton - September 24, 2024

It’s back — LIAT, the Caribbean airline that was for decades the region’s central way to get around. Now it’s called LIAT 2020, and the reborn carrier keeps adding new Caribbean islands.

The latest? St Vincent and the Grenadines, where the carrier will begin flying starting Oct. 4, the company confirmed this week.

LIAT will be flying to St Vincent’s Argyle International Airport from three regional markets: Barbados, Antigua and Grenada, meaning more connectivity within the region and a boost particularly for travelers from the United Kingdom looking to connect to St Vincent.

Indeed, all three of those markets are served by British Airways flights from London.

St Vincent has been seeing strong growth in 2024, buoyed by the spring debut of its first-ever Sandals resort.
