BAHAMAS AND KINGDOM OF SAUDI ARABIA EXECUTE LOAN AGREEMENT FOR FAMILY ISLAND AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT
The Government of The Bahamas and the Saudi Fund for Development are also continuing talks on additional funding to include North Eleuthera’s airport infrastructure in the next tranche. This is subject to airport inspections by SFD due to take place in early October.
According to Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Tourism, Investments & Aviation the Honourable I. Chester Cooper, “Today’s signing marks a significant milestone in advancing the phased development of targeted airports as part of the Government’s Family Islands Airport Renaissance Project, and further solidifies our relationship with The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.”
According to CEO of The Saudi Fund for Development Sultan Abdulrahman Al-Marshad, “SFDs latest development loan agreement with The Bahamas will play a major role in enhancing the capabilities and renaissance of the nation’s Family Island airports. We look forward to working closely with the country’s government to ensure timely delivery. We believe that once completed, the project will benefit the economy and bring about prosperity for all the friendly people of The Bahamas.”
The Bahamas government has outlined its priorities in the Family Island Airport Renaissance Project as Exuma, Grand Bahama, North Eleuthera, Cat Island, Long Island and Black Point, with additional airports to be completed in the next tranche.
With over 700 islands and cays, and 16 unique island destinations, The Bahamas lies just 50 miles off the coast of Florida, offering an easy flyaway escape that transports travellers away from their everyday. The Islands of The Bahamas have world-class fishing, diving, boating and thousands of miles of the earth’s most spectacular water and beaches waiting for families, couples and adventurers.
