Caribbean Airlines has launched a non-stop service from Port-of-Spain to Kingston. The flight will operate twice weekly, and passengers will be 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. 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. Let’s not forget that customers also have the option of leaving Kingston late in the afternoon up to four times weekly in order to facilitate that afternoon meeting or exam. This latest shift in our schedule demonstrates our flexibility to cater to customer demands when the need arises, yet still provide a truly reliable product that is undoubtedly the best in the region, said Laura Asbjornsen, Head of Corporate Communications at the Trinidadian carrier.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.

We continue to build on Caribbean Airlines’ commitment to increasing connectivity in the region. We are proud of this latest development, and know that this new service continues the much anticipated expansion into the Caribbean. Our product offering remains robust and we stand by our philosophy of giving the customer value for money when it comes to travel to, from, and within the Caribbean region. Regionally, we offer several extras for our UWI students such date change waivers along with extra baggage allowances and fare discounts where applicable. We pride ourselves on getting you to your destination on time. Our On-Time-Performance (OTP) continues to exceed industry benchmarks and in 2010 we reported a 91% OTP, added Asbjornsen.
