“This latest series of new routes – even in the current environment – advance our revised network strategy, returns more aircraft to the skies, and doubles down on our ability to generate more cash sooner. It’s a huge boost for many Caribbean destinations that have seen a reduction in airlift amid the ongoing pandemic.”
The carrier has already launched reservations on all of the new routes.
