An advisory from the airline explains it will operate a weekly, non-stop service each Tuesday between Trinidad and Havana, Cuba, with easy connections to other destinations.
“Cuba is the Caribbean's largest island, and it is rich in history and culture. The island is almost 800 miles from end to end, with a population around 11.48 million and some of the Caribbean’s most dazzling beaches. Cuba’s depth and diversity make it one of the most fascinating countries in the region,” the airline said.
It added: “With safety protocols fully in place, the Caribbean Airlines teams are excited to restart commercial operations to Havana, for the first time since Trinidad and Tobago re-opened its borders in July. Now business, leisure and other travellers can easily connect to Cuba to enjoy all the country offers.”

The airline explains that throughout the pandemic, it has worked in partnership with regional Governments to provide charter services for groups of Cuban medical professionals traveling to support the Caribbean’s management of the COVID-19 virus.

“Caribbean Airlines is pleased to have supported the regional effort and is looking forward to the return of regular commercial operations to Havana in December,” the airline stated.
