Potential for Barbados to secure more international flights

August 29, 2024

There’s potential for Barbados and St. Lucia to secure more international flights through the embrace of the hub-and-spoke network model.

A hub is a central airport that flights are routed through, and spokes are the routes that planes take out of the hub airport.

The Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association says a similar arrangement can be in place in the Northern Caribbean with Jamaica, Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic.

President Nicola Madden-Greig believes such a system can work.

Ms. Madden-Greig made her views known in an address at the Organisation of American States.
