PROVIDENCIALES, Turks and Caicos Islands, February 2, 2026 – interCaribbean Airways CEO Trevor Sadler and members of his team concluded a two-day visit to Trinidad this week, meeting with government ministers and the local travel trade community ahead of the airline’s new service between Barbados and Port of Spain* launching March 8, 2026.
On Tuesday, Mr. Sadler met with Senator the Honourable Eli Zakour, Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation, at a high-level coordination meeting that included Mr. Cary Price, Director-General of the Trinidad and Tobago Civil Aviation Authority, and representatives from the Airports Authority of Trinidad and Tobago. Mr. Sadler also met separately with Senator the Honourable Randall Mitchell, Minister of Tourism, Culture and the Arts.
