Home News Caribbean Airlines expanding route network
Caribbean Airlines Limited is set to enhance its Caribbean network with the launch of a new route to Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. The service would commence on October 14, 2024 as part of the airline’s ongoing efforts to boost regional connectivity.
Beginning in October, Caribbean Airlines would be operating flights to Tortola four times a week from its base in the Republic of Trinidad & Tobago (T&T). The new route is purported to offer convenient connections to several other key destinations in the Caribbean, including Antigua, Barbados, and San Juan in Puerto Rico.
CEO of Caribbean Airlines Limited, Garvin Medera, in emphasising the importance of this expansion, has said, “Regional connectivity is at the heart of Caribbean Airlines’ Mission. Our new service to Tortola is a significant step in our growth strategy, and we are committed to providing seamless travel experiences for our passengers. By the end of this year, Caribbean Airlines will link the Spanish, French, Dutch and English-speaking Caribbean with each other, as well as the North American diaspora and business and leisure travellers who wish to explore our vibrant region.”
The Director of Tourism of the British Virgin Islands’ Tourist Board & Film Commission, Clive McCoy, has expressed enthusiasm in regard to this new route by saying, “We couldn’t be more thrilled with Caribbean Airlines’ decision to service our islands. Granting more persons the opportunity to visit the BVI is a win for tourism. We look forward to welcoming the guests with BVI Love.”
In a release on Monday, the airline said the new route underscores its commitment to enhancing regional integration and providing easier access to the Caribbean’s diverse destinations.
