oh thanks i though it was one of the island in the "irma" path now i see it's far away from those islands cheers

[ivor4781]

wow 6hrs 45 from new york to london but 10hrs 40 for that flight got to be a smaller prop aircraft ?

[Toorak]

That's what I was thinking - you could fly from London to Tokyo in that time

" A ten hour and 40 minute flight from Barbuda to Bermuda"
perhaps it's a ten hour and forty minute float.

[hc4361]

Definitely flight :) As far as I know there is no direct flight

1,031 miles apart

[ivor4781]

all flights seem to be via US that explains it

[Prudie]

Just to clarify Barbuda belongs to Antigua, same government and the correct name for that country is Antigua & Barbuda which is the two islands.

[Prudie]

And from here you fly to Antigua and then either get the short flight or ferry over to Barbuda.

I was the same and apparently Bermuda is not even part of the Caribbean.
It belongs to north America.

^^ The Caribbean is in North America.

[hc4361]

Bermuda is a British Oversees Territory, it doesn't belong to America.

[davegosling]

Politically, it doesn't; geographically, it does - like Greenland.
