Tribune Business Editor
The major Nassau/Paradise Island hotels continued to see improvements in key financial indicators through August 2010, with revenues and room nights sold some 8 per cent and 7 per cent ahead, respectively, of 2009 comparatives for that month, with "every month putting the industry closer" to achieving pre-September 2008 crash numbers.
