British Airways will add an extra weekly flight from London Gatwick to Grenada for the winter season.

CEO of Grenada Tourism Authority Petra Roach said the new Sunday service will ‘boost connectivity and offer extra choice and flexibility to UK travellers’.

Starting on 30 October, it will operate via Antigua.

“We want to thank British Airways for their confidence in Grenada as a destination, and for providing our diaspora and UK visitors with more flexibility and convenience,” said Petra.

Virgin Atlantic also operates flights to Grenada, from London Heathrow, with two weekly flights via Barbados on Tuesdays and Saturdays until 29 October 2022, and then Tuesdays and Fridays from 1 November 2022.

Early next year, a new Six Senses luxury resort and the boutique, 31-room The Beach House will open on the island.
