TOURISM OFFICIALS are over the moon this holiday season as the island is proving to be a calling card for the rich and famous like never before.

The chief executive officer of the Barbados Tourism Marketing Inc. (BTMI), William “Billy” Griffith, told the SUNDAY SUN he was “delighted” that dozens of celebrities had chosen Barbados as their choice destination for Christmas and New Year, with their presence here being broadcast across the globe, and providing advertising that can’t be quantified in dollars alone.

For the past three weeks, paparazzi have been in a frenzy on west coast beaches, and airport workers kept busy with the movement of private jets in and out of the Grantley Adams International Airport.
