Regional Caribbean carrier LIAT is expanding its flight network in the region next month, the company announced.

LIAT will be launching new routes from Trinidad’s Piarco International Airport to both Antigua and Guyana.

The nonstop flights will launch July 1.

“With the different summer festivals happening across the region as well as more persons looking for Caribbean destinations to visit, now is the ideal time to book a LIAT flight,” said Egbert Riley, head of sales and marketing at LIAT.

The new flights also give travelers the option to experience more island hopping getaways.
