By: Caribbean Journal Staff - March 10, 2023

InterCaribbean Airways is adding more flights between Grenada and Barbados. 

Beginning next week, InterCaribbean will be adding more frequencies on the route, up-gauging its aircraft from a 30-seat Embraer 120 to a 48-seat ATR 42. 

Grenada continues to rebuild its capacity to on the Barbados-Grenada route, part of Grenada Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell’s push to grow air connectivity in the region. 

Barbados is the second-highest-producing tourism market for Grenada. 

“InterCaribbean is dedicated to performing its critical role in the development of the economies of the region and the enrichment of the lives of its citizens by ensuring connectivity. Our partnership with Grenada is borne out of our desire to serve the needs of the people by exceeding their travel expectations,” said Lyndon Gardiner, Chairman of InterCaribbean Airways. “Grenada has a creative economy that thrives on its tourism and its educational services—all attractive to the would-be traveller. InterCaribbean is proud of its accomplishments in helping to further government’s thrust to develop these and other areas. There is power and prosperity in partnership.”

The expanded route also more access for Grenada to Barbados’ strong international airlift network. 

The flights officially begin March 16. 

“We would like to express our sincere appreciation to InterCaribbean for their continued and unwavering support of Grenada. We were challenged with the lack of capacity on the Grenada-Barbados route, which has slowed down the rebound of the Caribbean market and they worked collaboratively with us to find a viable solution. Our work is not done and we expect that in short shrift, the frequency of the operation will increase to twice daily,” said Petra Roach, CEO of the Grenada Tourism Authority.
