There is no secret sauce here. The global airline industry is very mature and uber efficient. If the BVI wishes to have a future in the high end hospitality and business markets. They must have an industry standard runway and areas to handle the planes and passengers. Those are table stakes. The equivalent of customer oriented business with a driveway, parking lot, and welcoming front door. That is what EIS must become.

Bermuda is the seeing eye dog here showing the way. Build the driveway, parking lot, and front door. Then pay the airlines subsidies (Minimum Revenue Guarantees) to have daily flights from the cities that the BVI wants to attract.

The airline subsidies are the equivalent of the gas pedal for the economy. When the BVI wants more bodies in boats, villas, or hotels. You pay an airline or two cash to bring those customers to the door.

You can read the details on how this works in the airline and hospitality industry here. FYI, Bermuda has far fewer overnight visitors that the BVI with a Bermuda population of 65,000.
