The world’s largest airline is expanding its nonstop service to the Eastern Caribbean island of Saint Lucia ahead of the summer season, Caribbean Journal has learned. 

American Airlines is doubling its daily nonstop flights between Miami and Saint Lucia’s Hewanorra International Airport, with the expansion set to take effect on June 5. 

That will be operating through at least the summer.
