The Guyana government has welcomed the inaugural non-stop service by United Airlines saying it will serve as a major catalyst for further enhancing the country’s connectivity to the global tourism marketplace.
Guyana’s Public Works Minister, Bishop Juan Edghill, regarded the service as a tangible symbol of the government’s vision for expanded air travel options.
The United States Ambassador to Guyana, Nicole Theriot, underscored the importance of strengthening the US/Guyana partnership with the development of such business ventures.
The new service, which runs four times a week, will give customers easy and direct access to both destinations.
United Airlines also offers flights to more destinations across the Atlantic and Pacific than all US carriers combined and continues to expand its presence in Latin America and the Caribbean, growing its summer schedule by over 10 per cent throughout the region.
