BERMUDA FOR AMERICANS.SHAMEFUL.
FRANCHISE????
It’s called INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS.
Do you want it or not?
Is that US Customs & Immigration or Bda only? The former would make pvt plane travel much better and convenient.
So I am told by people who use that service.
INTERNATIONAL BUISENESS INVOLVES XL,ACE,REN RE ETC..
NOT KFC/UNIVERSAL/MC DONALDS
There is not sufficient business to support two private jet terminals in Bermuda as was evidenced by the demise of the previous tenant at this facility (locals I believe who lost their shirts and left their employees in the lurch). So far it’s BAS 1 – Competitors 0. Let the games begin.
This has Kerwin written all over it.
