GOLD SPONSORS

Antigua Distillery Ltd

After a partnership spanning nearly fifteen years Stanford Antigua Sailing Week is pleased to count Antigua Distillery as a Gold Sponsor and its Official Rum Supplier. The Distillery was formed in 1932 from a group of small, individual rum shops. Originally, its full-bodied, aged Cavalier Muscavado Rum named after the high quality sugar molasses from which it was made, pleased consumers. In 1992 to commemorate the twenty-fifth anniversary of The Antigua Sailing Regatta Antigua Distillery introduced English Harbour Rum as an international brand. Crafted in copper stills, aged in oak barrels, and with an assortment of vintage rums, it has received worldwide recognition, ranking English Harbour 5 yr Rum as one of the ten most remarkable rums worldwide. English Harbour Rum continues to be a premium rum distiller in the Leeward Islands.

Virgin Atlantic is an award winning UK based airline whose brand is all about challenging the status quo.  An unrelenting focus on innovation and customer service has resulted in frequent travelers voting Virgin Atlantic ‘Best Transatlantic Airline’ more times than any other airline.

Virgin Atlantic brought their special touch to Sailing Week in 2005 with the creation of the Virgin Atlantic Beach Bash at Dickenson Bay.  It was an exciting day that included a performance by a world class ski club “Stars of Florida”, a race across Dickenson Bay with the Bath Tub Derby, a play area for children, a live performance of Abba One and loads of goodies throughout the day. 

Originally launched in 1984 with one flight a day between London and New York, Virgin now operates one of the world’s youngest airline fleets.  We connect Barbados, Antigua, St. Lucia, Grenada, Tobago, Cuba, Bahamas and, starting in July 2006, Jamaica with the UK and beyond to Africa, India, Asia, Australia.

The newest innovation launched by Virgin Atlantic is the Upper Class Suite.  When flying in Upper Class you’ll be able to luxuriate in the biggest fully flat bed in Business Class. But your journey begins well before you board the aircraft.  Offering four chauffeur driven cars you are picked up at home and in London whisked through the drive in check in.  Add to this the on-board bar, award winning in flight entertainment and the exclusive Clubhouse in Gatwick with the Virgin Touch heath and beauty salon and the Upper Class Suite is a product beyond compare.

We look forward to welcoming you on-board!
