News Report: Chamber exec.: Hotels making decisions for the ‘long haul’

From EyeWitness News June 19th, 2020


NASSAU, BAHAMAS — Resorts that have pushed back their opening dates are simply making a “business decision”, according to Bahamas Chamber of Commerce and Employers Confederation (BCCEC) chief executive Jeffrey Beckles.


Beckles noted some properties were likely hoping for greater demand in the Fall.


“We are very happy that we are able to get to this point of reopening,” he said. 


“While some hotel properties are delaying their opening we must keep in mind that they are businesses as well and the choice to not open during the softer part of the season is a business decision. 


“The good part is they are opening in the Fall when there is likely to be greater demand in tourism.”
