Caribbean Airlines Cargo introduces extra capacity for Christmas peak

Piarco, Trinidad and Tobago, W.I. November 19, 2019 – Caribbean Airlines Cargo announces that extra freighter services will be added to its operations for the upcoming Christmas peak season.

During the period of December 02 – 24, 2019, Caribbean Airlines Cargo will increase its cargo capacity by over 100% with additional daily freighter flights to accommodate delivery commitments to its customers.

This increased capacity from Miami includes:

Six weekly flights to POS (Monday to Saturday)

Five weekly flights to KIN (Mon, Wed, Thurs, Fri, Sun)

Two weekly flights to GEO (Wednesday and Saturday)

Two weekly flights to BGI (Tuesday and Friday)

During the peak season customers are encouraged to book their cargo at least one week in advance, or at minimum, three days prior to the flight date.
