Main Points
Contour Airlines will launch a new direct air link between Trinidad and Tobago and Dominica from October 5, giving travellers another option for getting around the Caribbean. The airline will operate nonstop flights between Piarco International Airport in Trinidad and Douglas-Charles Airport in Dominica twice per week. For travellers leaving Trinidad, flights to Dominica are scheduled on Tuesdays and Fridays, departing Piarco at 8:30 a.m. The return service from Dominica to Trinidad will operate on Mondays and Thursdays. The new route also opens additional travel options beyond Dominica. Contour will provide one-stop, same-aircraft service connecting Trinidad with San Juan, Puerto Rico, and St Thomas in the US Virgin Islands. This means passengers travelling on those services can remain on the same aircraft during the stop rather than changing planes. The airline is using regional jet aircraft for the service. Contour's first flight into Trinidad is scheduled to arrive at Piarco International Airport on Monday, October 5, where the Airports Authority of Trinidad and Tobago will host an official welcome. The arriving aircraft is expected to receive a traditional water cannon salute, followed by a ribbon-cutting ceremony and remarks from airline, airport and government officials. The addition gives travellers another direct option between Trinidad and Dominica while also improving access to Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands through Contour's wider Caribbean network.
