St. Vincent and the Grenadines will welcome back Canadians this week with the resumption of nonstop flights from Toronto with Air Canada.
The flight service will operate weekly starting on Dec. 6, departing Mondays onboard Air Canada’s mainline 737Max.
In an interview with Travel Week, head of the tourism authority Glen Beache said SVG is very excited to welcome our Canadian friends.
“After such an extended absence, we are delighted with the return of Air Canada’s nonstop service from Toronto to St. Vincent.”
“Air Canada was the first North American carrier to operate flights here, and they will once again be instrumental in increasing visitation.”
SVGTA recently relaunched its website, www.DiscoverSVG.com, which now features a completely revamped look, feel and functionality designed to enhance the user experience.
“With all that is happening globally, and resources being incredibly difficult to come by, having a strong digital marketing presence allows us to reach potential visitors we ordinarily would not be able to. Social media is a staple of any digital marketing strategy, but ultimately having a functional website that offers an aesthetically-pleasing, informative, and user-friendly experience is an organization’s most important advertising and information-sharing medium.”
NEW ENTRY PROTOCOLS
In preparation for tourists’ return, the government of SVG has released updated COVID-19 protocols.
Fully vaccinated travellers must arrive with proof of vaccination and a negative PCR test completed no more than 72 hours or three days before arrival. These travellers will not be retested during their stay, now will they have to complete any mandatory quarantine upon arrival.
