Nevis has been making a large green tourism push of late, highlighted by a series of green energy programs to the eco-conscious Four Seasons Resort, a story which was featured by Caribbean Journal earlier this year.

Challenger said the company had a longstanding relationship with Nevis, and announced that the two sides had agreed on a schedule of services between Nevis and Antigua for this seasons, aimed at maximizing traffic from UK travelers, using Antigua’s VC Bird International Airport as a hub.

VC Bird recently saw the groundbreaking for a new terminal that will be financed by China.
