New York, NY -- Antigua and Barbuda’s minister of tourism and civil aviation, Harold Lovell, says his country is aiming to attract 1,000,000 visitors from cruise and stay over arrivals combined, by the end of 2007.
Lovell made the comment during the NY kick-off of the Antigua and Barbuda’s Ministry of Tourism yearlong marketing campaign to promote its Jubilee Year of Festivals.
