Emirates to support visitor arrivals to The Bahamas

Emirates has sealed an agreement with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of The Bahamas to promote tourism to the Caribbean archipelago on January 3 . The airline and The Bahamas’ Ministry of Tourism will embark on joint initiatives to boost visitor traffic into the islands from key markets across Emirates’ network. 

The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed by Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Emirates Group Chairman and Chief Executive and Tony Joudi, Ambassador of The Bahamas to the UAE and the State of Qatar at the Emirates Group Headquarters in Dubai.

Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Emirates Group said: “Through our partnerships with United and Air Canada, we look forward to playing a key role in promoting The Bahamas as a key leisure destination.”  

Under the MoU, both parties will partner on joint promotional campaigns. The agreement will see also marketing activities including media and trade familiarization trips, and the development of tailor-made tour packages, through its tour operating arm Emirates Holidays.

Spread across 16 major islands, The Bahamas boasts more than 100,000 sq. miles of the world’s clearest ocean. Its coveted beaches and pristine shorelines make The Bahamas one of the most popular tourism destinations in the Caribbean, offering a rich mix of leisure and cultural activities for visitors. 

Emirates currently flies to 12 points in the US in addition to Toronto. Emirates’ customers from across its global network can utilise its services to fly to US destinations such as Houston, Chicago, or Newark before connecting to Nassau, capital of the Bahamas, on United. Travellers can also fly to The Bahamas via Toronto, with Air Canada.

Emirates presently operates 21 weekly flights from Dhaka and via Dubai offers convenient connections to over 130 destinations worldwide
