A government statement said since late last year direct flights from Canada and the United States have been significantly affected because of the airline’s decision to reroute its flights through Trinidad.

“The intention of the meeting is to re-negotiate with Caribbean Airlines to increase direct regional and international flights to Grenada,” the statement said, adding that while in Port of Spain, Bain-Horsford will also hold talks with her counterpart Sampha Cudjoe “on collaborative civil aviation and tourism efforts”.
