Caribbean Airlines announced today that it is increasing its service to South America with the introduction of three additional non-stop flights to Caracas. Starting 21 April, the airline will have 10 weekly return flights on its roster between the Venezuelan capital and Port of Spain.

The additional flights which will operate on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays will be serviced by the airline’s Dash-8 aircraft. The schedule is built to provide excellent connection times in Caracas for passengers traveling from European destinations, as well as inbound connections from Central and South America to Trinidad. The 115 (1hr 55mins) minute flight will include Caribbean Miles accumulation and rewards, web check-in, and the reliable warm service that Caribbean Airlines’ customers have grown accustomed to on all our routes. These services also provide an excellent opportunity for those individuals who wish to take a day trip between Port of Spain and Caracas.

"Caribbean Airlines is committed to providing as many travel options for our passengers [as possible]", says Caribbean Airlines’ CEO Philip Saunders. "Our South American routes are highly utilised by the business community and the introduction of additional services is well within our strategy to fully utilise Piarco International Airport as an international hub linking North and South America. We want to further strengthen our position as the airline of choice in the region".

Caribbean Airlines currently services three destinations in South America with daily flights to Guyana, Suriname and Venezuela. Customers are encouraged to visit www.caribbean-airlines.com or contact the Airline’s Reservations Department or their Travel Agent for further information.
