March 29, 2018
United States Ambassador to Guyana, Perry Holloway said persons travelling to Guyana now have more choices with the introduction of American Airlines to the Guyana route.
Ambassador Holloway was speaking on the morning radio show ‘Jumpstart’ which is broadcasted on HJ Radio 94.1FM. He noted that the addition of American Airlines to Guyana’s skies is also a boost for tourism.
“It should help trade and tourism there are more options to get here. Guyana is one of the countries that is hardest to get to, in the region. The more options you have the better.”
This is also good for investment in the country, the U.S Ambassador added. “I know a lot of US investors to come here they have a number of concerns but the ease of getting in and out of Guyana and the time it takes is one of their major concerns so this should only be a good thing…The good news is Guyana is going to have at least a tripling in GDP [Gross Domestic Product] in let’s say five years, seven years and there will be money to do infrastructure,” said Ambassador Holloway.
American Airlines announced recently that it will be servicing Guyana in December as part of its efforts to expand its presence in the region. Tickets go on sale from April 2 for the inaugural flight on December 20.
American Airlines offer an average of nearly 6,700 flights per day to nearly 350 destinations in more than 50 countries.
Talk about advance purchase.

Maybe is fake news by the Coalition government then.
It's in their press release on their website:

And American is continuing to grow its presence in the region with the addition of four new destinations. Next winter, customers looking for history, culture and warm climate will have access to three new cities in South America: Georgetown, Guyana (GEO); Pereira, Colombia (PEI) and Cordoba, Argentina (COR); and one new city in Mexico: Oaxaca (OAX).Ehehehehehehehe...hey hey hey...Abie allow dem pushers, hustlers and hucksters foh knowck down all abie histry lehacy and replace dem wid square box buildings bai.

Labbaman, it's a relief to know that I can book a flight from Minneapolis and collect my luggage in Guyana. Caribbean Airways treated us Guyanese like kindergarten kids at the airport coming from Guyana. It was always a dehumanizing experience to remove your shoes, empty your pockets, etc. 2-3 times going through security even though you haven't left the secured area. That's the reason I flew Suriname airways in February/March. Was a pleasant experience.
