Located southeast of Puerto Rico in the Leeward Is-
lands, the popular Caribbean destination of Antigua
actually consists of two islands – Antigua and Bar-
buda, plus several smaller islands. These islands offer just
about everything that a New York-area family looking for
a winter getaway could desire: warm, steady winds, a
coastline of safe harbors, and a protective, nearly unbro-
ken wall of coral reef. Temperatures in Antigua and Bar-
buda generally range from the mid-seventies in the winter
to the mid-eighties in the summer.
Beginning on November 17, you can fly to Antigua on a
new, direct nonstop flight operated by American Airlines
from John F. Kennedy International Airport. American
