Caribbean Airlines looking at Ogle, Brazil

Following his flying visit here, Caribbean Airlines Chairman George Nicholas has said that the airline is looking at flights out of the upgraded Ogle Airport to the region and to Brazil.

According to a report in today’s Trinidad Newsday, Nicholas said “This ATR aircraft purchase will allow us to now consider the introduction of aircraft for regional flights operating from Ogle Airport (at Guyana) when it receives its upgrades status,” Nicholas said. “This development will see us connecting Guyana to Brazil at strategic points.”
Nicholas visited here last week to apologise for problems experienced by Guyanese travellers and to announce that direct flights between Guyana and New York would begin in July. He also assured that fares would be looked at. Guyanese have complained about the high fares between Guyana and Trinidad.
