Quotes

...Sales volumes are just starting to pick up, believes Harry Manning, owner of real estate firm Harry Manning Associates. "It´s a very stable place – economically and politically – it has a familiarity to it for British buyers with low crime, good roads, hospitals and schools and excellent communication from US and Europe. It has a depth of culture which means buyers can winter there without going crazy" says Savills’ Caribbean director James Burdess
Thierry Antinori, Emirates' executive vice president of passenger sales worldwide, said: "As Emirates continues to expand its presence in the U S market, our partnership offering with JetBlue provides customers with convenient connections from its extensive network to our seven U S gateways, including our twice daily A380 service non-stop from JFK to Dubai."
He said: "Further, and by way of extrapolation, it is you the artisans of Barbados, your bequeathed artistic expression, and passion and innovative foresight that must seek to reposition yourself on the front-burner of this economy."
"Offering a boost to tourism and added convenience for inbound travellers, the codeshare also gives Emirates' customers a new choice of destinations with the benefit of a single combined ticket" he said
