Easter flights surge

Caribbean Airlines added 38 extra flights between Trinidad and Tobago to handle Easter demand — expect fuller flights and busier airports during the holiday. (travelandtourworld.com)

The airline’s Easter schedule runs from March 27 to April 12 and increases inter‑island capacity by 2,584 seats using its ATR 72‑600 turboprops. (103fm.tt ) Those additional seats are already available for purchase through the carrier’s mobile app, official website and Reservations Call Centre. (103fm.tt ) Tobago House of Assembly Secretary for Youth Empowerment and Sport Keigon Denoon had urged more lift ahead of Easter and asked for a jet solution, but the airline confirmed the extra services will operate on ATR turboprops. (CNC3.co.tt ) Local tourism stakeholders warned the announcement was late for many travellers — the Tobago Tourism and Hotel Association said there were no available seats reported between March 26 and April 4 before the airline’s top‑up was released. (Guardian.co.tt ) This capacity boost follows precedent: the carrier added roughly 3,200 extra seats for Tobago Carnival in October 2025 and reinstated a late‑night inter‑island service effective July 1, 2025, indicating a pattern of event‑driven schedule increases.
