The region’s transport ministers are in talks regarding connectivity and integration in air travel across the Caribbean.
Jamaica’s Minister of Transport and Works, Mike Henry, said he has had discussions with the ministers of transport for Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago and further talks will be held next month.
“We are also scheduled for a meeting in October where we can begin, as ministers of transport, to discuss the development of an integrated air travel for the Caribbean and to make it more economically viable, more speedily attainable and that we will develop better interconnectivity,” he stated.
Henry was speaking at a seminar on ‘Air travel in the Caribbean: Challenges and Opportunities,’ held last week, on the Mona campus of the University of the West Indies (UWI).
