Noting that the flight was not an inaugural flight, Olisa stated that Air Peace was looking to commence scheduled commercial flights into the two-island country and wants Nigerian investors to see the investment opportunities that abound in Antigua and Barbuda, especially in the area of tourism, and factoring her conducive business environment.
Olisa, added that tourism was a major revenue earner for Antigua and Barbuda and hinted that the special flight which departed on Saturday, was a 4-day trip featuring a key business conference for strategic discourses on investment opportunities, networking and other planned recreational activities around the Antigua Carnival.
