Last update: 4 hours ago

Cruise Boost for the Region: St. Kitts port welcomed two major ships, Star of the Seas and Celebrity Beyond, bringing thousands of passengers and a fresh surge for taxis, tours, vendors and restaurants. Disaster Readiness: The Antigua and Barbuda Red Cross Society joined a regional Early Action Protocol workshop in Guadeloupe to pre-plan and pre-fund help before hurricanes hit. Cost of Living Relief: Cabinet confirmed ABST will drop to zero for selected back-to-school supplies and food on August 28–29, with the Inland Revenue Department set to guide qualifying items. Public Safety and Security: Government is considering a nationwide drone security network for surveillance and faster incident assessment, while officials also suspect firearms are being smuggled into Antigua in parts and assembled locally. Transport Pressure: Bus drivers at both terminals are calling for an immediate fare increase after more than 20 years without one. Sports Pathways: Antigua and Barbuda’s Benna Boys U20 players were named in a senior training squad, and fencing faces a coaching crunch as interest grows.
