AGP Executive Report
Last update: 11 hours agoAir Connectivity Shock: Caribbean Airlines will cut routes from June 1, ending flights to Dominica, St Kitts and the Ogle (Guyana)–Suriname corridor, while reducing service to Martinique and Guadeloupe to twice weekly—aimed at restoring “operational reliability” and stopping sustained losses. Passenger Relief: The airline says booked customers will be contacted directly, with options including rebooking on other regional services, partner connections, full refunds for unused ticket parts, or travel credit (subject to fare rules). Regional Debate: Trinidad’s transport minister previously tied the restructuring to losses from the 2023 Eastern Caribbean expansion, and the cuts are already reigniting the question of who will fill the intra-Caribbean airlift gap. French Caribbean Trade Links: Separately, France’s Eastern Caribbean ambassador says Saint Lucia and Martinique are discussing expanded import-export facilitation for 15 products—an effort to deepen ties between the two islands just 37 km apart.
