The biggest tourism impediment Bermuda has is it’s too expensive for most people and even the savvy wealthy, are not going to pay more for less-and also risk wildcat walkouts! That’s why most are cruiseship visitors!

Who’s the Bermuda market? People who like paying more for less?

Bit of a sweeping statement there. Any facts to substantiate that?

Unless you’re 5 years old, who wants to go to Orlando? That is not the Bermuda market.

I like what the BTA is doing here especially with the links to the America’ Cup. One thing – I’m not sure I would have chose the Times’ website which is a paid for/subscription only site.

Agreed. we could do with more competition the UK to Bermuda route. Shame Virgin never seem interested

The trouble is that you need to differentiate yourself from the market. Sitting on a beach is something we can’t compete on. You could probably go to the Maldives from the UK for the same price as coming here.

I would like to see focus on the wreck diving on offer here….the whale watching…..the big game fishing.

There are lot’s young professionals with disposable income in London. You just need to give them a reason to come.

Not true at all. Have you been to Orlando in the summer? Brits EVERYWHERE. Trouble is the plane prices to come here for them. They have much cheaper options available like going to Florida or Spain as opposed to Bermuda.
