PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, May 22, CMC- The state-owned Caribbean Airlines (CAL) announced Friday that, from June 1, it will discontinue its service on the Dominica, St. Kitts, and Ogle in Guyana to Suriname routes as it continues to “focus on operational reliability, customer experience and long-term financial stability”.
The airline said in addition, it would reduce the frequency of its flights to the French islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe to twice weekly.
“Customers holding bookings on affected services beyond applicable discontinuation dates will be contacted directly by Caribbean Airlines or via their travel agents,” CAL said, adding that affected passengers will be offered re-accommodation on alternative regional services where feasible.
It said the affected passengers will also be given a full refund of the unused portion of their ticket, or the retention of the ticket value as a future travel credit, subject to fare conditions.
“Caribbean Airlines is actively working towards concluding a codeshare agreement with a regional airline partner. Once finalized and approved, the agreement will provide customers with access to a wider network of destinations through coordinated schedules, seamless connections, and integrated ticketing arrangements,” the airline said.
It said that in keeping with standard aviation and regulatory practices, CAL “will undertake the necessary operational, regulatory and customer support processes to facilitate a smooth transition.
“Caribbean Airlines remains committed to maintaining strong regional connectivity through a sustainable and commercially responsible network, while continuing to focus on operational reliability, customer experience, and long-term financial stability.”
