Caribbean Airlines<\/a>, which is the flag carrier of Trinidad and Tobago, has announced that it will be increasing the frequency of its flights between Trinidad and Dominica. This move is expected to make it more convenient for travelers to visit the island of Dominica.<\/p>\n

More frequency<\/h2>\n

Starting April 7, Caribbean Airlines will add a return flight from Dominica Douglas-Charles Airport (DOM) to Port of Spain Piarco International Airport (POS), expanding its service from two weekly flights to three weekly flights between these airports.<\/p>\n

Presently, Caribbean Airlines operates two weekly flights between DOM airport and POS airport on Mondays and Thursdays. The airline typically deploys its fleet of 68-seat\u00a0ATR 72<\/a>\u00a0turboprop aircraft on this route, according to Flightradar24.com. It is worth noting that flights between DOM and POS are short, taking approximately 1,5 hours.<\/p>\n
