Caribbean Airlines has launched a non-stop service from Port-of-Spain to Kingston bolstering its position as the leading airline in the region.

Last year the carrier was recognised by World Travel Awards as the Caribbean’s Leading Airline.

The new flight will operate twice weekly, with passengers able to get from Port of Spain to Kingston non-stop on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

This non-stop service is in addition to the nine direct weekly flights already offered by the Trinidadian carrier, making it possible to get to Jamaica eleven times a week from Port-of-Spain, Trinidad.

“Kingston has been a destination that Caribbean Airlines has served since its inception in 2007,” Laura Asbjornsen, head of corporate communications at the Trinidadian carrier.

“We have served this market consistently in the last four years, and are excited to be able to offer even more convenient schedules which enable customers to arrive in Kingston early enough to conduct their business on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

In addition to the non-stop Kingston service, the airline recently launched a special summer service to Orlando, Florida which will operate during the months of July and August.

The Orlando flights will be operating from Piarco International Airport to MCO International Airport in Orlando on Tuesdays and Fridays from 5 July until 2 September.
