TUI Is Returning to Saint Lucia

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - September 29, 2020

The United Kingdom’s TUI Airways is making its return to Saint Lucia in November.

The carrier will resume weekly flights from London Gatwick to Saint Lucia’s Hewanorra International Airport on Nov. 3.

The relaunched flights will join four British Airways flights to form a strong offering to Saint Lucia out of the UK market.

Saint Lucia has welcomed more than 8,500 visitors since reopening for tourism at the beginning of June.

“We are thrilled to be welcoming back our colleagues at TUI for another winter season. The weekly flight to Saint Lucia means that visitors have more choice and flexibility with their travel which is paramount in these challenging times,” said Saint Lucia Tourism Minister Dominic Fedee.
