Nevis Premier To Attend Tourism Trade Show

Charlestown, Nevis
October 2nd, 2007

Premier of Nevis, Hon. Joseph Parry will be leading the Nevis delegation to the fourteenth annual Florida Caribbean Conference Cruise Association (FCCA) in Cozumel, Mexico on Saturday, October 6th, 2007.

“The conference is scheduled to be held from October 8-12, 2007 and is a significant step forward for the Ministry of Tourism. This move will help to promote a better understanding of the cruise industry for the delegates, while the Cruise Executives will be able to develop a first-rate relationship with Nevis as a destination partner. I believe that the one-on-one meetings with the top Cruise Executives of the industry will be an excellent opportunity for our island, to be recognised as a viable destination for cruise ship passengers,” says Premier Parry.

The delegation led by Premier Parry, includes Tourism Advisor Mr. Alistair Yearwood, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Tourism Mr. Tyrone O’Flaherty and Tourism Officer, Miss Nicole Liburd.
