Martinique Club Med Reopens

Club Med has reopened its new $60 million Club Med Buccaneer´s Creek resort on the French West Indies island of Martinique.

The reopening of the resort, set on one of the island´s most beautiful beaches, represents an important step in Club Med´s ongoing global expansion and, the company suggests, “its commitment to the needs of today´s upscale traveler.”

The day of the opening –December 17- also marked Club Med´s inauguration of direct charter services from New York´s JFK airport to Fort de France, Martinique. The plane transported Buccaneer Creek´s first guests and a group of travel industry leaders to celebrate the inauguration.

“The new weekly non-stop charter flights from New York City´s JFK International Airport to Fort-de-France in Martinique get our guests to Buccaneer´s Creek in time for lunch,” commented Club Med Americas President and C.E.O. John Vanderslice, who accompanied guests on the inaugural flight. Regular weekly non-stop charter flights to Martinique will begin officially on February 1.
