At the simple signing ceremony at the Arthur Chung Convention Centre, Director (ag) of the Department of Civil Aviation in Aruba, Anthony Kirchner expressed a desire to see direct flights with Guyana.

“I hope we will get more airlines between Aruba and Guyana and the connectivity because we don’t have a straight flight. We hope that we can arrange, with the help of Aruba Airlines to get a straight flight,” he stated.

He explained that talks for the agreement began when Aruba Airlines joined Guyana’s market.

Aruba Airlines currently services the Guyana – Cuba market.
