Wonderful for golf, swimming, bike riding, lovely way to spend christmas for all those folk toiling away in feets of snow – a nice relief and break from the dreary, dark, depressing winter months for them I am sure with lots of WHITE (or pink) sand to enjoy.
Thank you and I hope my MARKETING IDEA might find some traction with the powers that be!

Yeah right because so many of their women would rather stay there than come Bermuda….said no one ever. Yeah it’s cheaper there but I don’t think we wanna replicate them. Every plane doesn’t fly over Bermuda oh brilliant one, just like every car doesn’t go on middle road to Hamilton. Stick to your day job please.

The REAL reason they diverted was because the passengers, obviously, were craving tea.

Or, is it that many passengers are just Dominicans that are travelling to and fro either home on vacation or back abroad to work?

BDA is the only spot near the major route from EU to the Carribean. Even then, it’s almost a thousand mile divert from that route in an emergency

Bermuda is in a great location for these diversions (the many we get a year) we have to always have our ‘a’ game on with regard to our response, that’s a very large airplane and Lord forbid that day that it doesn’t end well, on another note, it’ll be nice to see something like that land on a scheduled flight…. Minister are you listening?
