CARIBBEAN AIRLINES CHAIRMAN EXPLORES STRATEGIC COLLABORATION WITH SAUDI’S AIR CONNECTIVITY PROGRAM

Port-of-Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, November 20, 2023. Caribbean Airlines Limited is pleased to announce that its Chairman, Mr. S. Ronnie Mohammed recently participated in the Prime Minister’s delegation to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

During this visit, Mr. Mohammed engaged in high-level discussions with Mr. Rashed Alshammair- Vice President of Commercial from Saudi Arabia’s Air Connectivity Program (ACP) to explore areas of collaboration and cooperation between Caribbean Airlines and Saudi Arabia.

Established in 2021, the Saudi Air Connectivity Program aims to bolster tourism growth in Saudi Arabia by enhancing air connectivity and developing both existing and potential air routes. By working at the intersection of tourism and aviation, ACP plays a crucial role in realizing the National Tourism Strategy’s vision, positioning Saudi Arabia as a global leader in tourism air connectivity.

These strategic meetings align seamlessly with Caribbean Airlines’ ambitious 2023-2027 strategic plan, where network growth stands as one of the key pillars. Recognizing the importance of Saudi Arabia as a destination for the Muslim community in Trinidad and Tobago and the broader region, particularly for the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages; Caribbean Airlines is eager to contribute to the facilitation of affordable and convenient travel.

During discussions, Mr. Mohammed in particular explored potential interline arrangements with Saudi Air and Riyadh Air, with the latter set to launch in 2024. This initiative forms a pivotal component of Caribbean Airlines’ growth strategy, emphasizing partnerships with airlines and stakeholders to extend its reach and enhance connectivity between Trinidad and Tobago, the Caribbean and the global community.

  1. Caribbean Airlines is going to partner with the Saudis for flights to the Caribbean.However,if you listened to the leader of Antigua and Barbuda.He never mentioned that in his discourse.The impression he gave,the Saudis were making arrangements to fly to Antigua.They were also going to build a Hotel.They are going to help with an RO Plant.I would be waiting to see them come to fruition.Not holding my damn breath.For Gaston Browne is so lie.If lie did see Gaston Browne it would be afraid of him and run across the Atlantic Ocean to Europe.Liar,liar,liar,damn liar.

  2. In the meantime, Gaston’s LIAT is grounded and ALL flights suspended because planes nah work!!!! What a clown show!!
