Air Connectivity Boost: LIAT (2020) and Air Caraïbes have launched a new interline agreement, letting travelers book one ticket across both networks with through-checked baggage and fewer hassles when moving between English- and French-speaking islands, including Guadeloupe, Martinique and French Guiana, plus onward links to Paris-Orly. Direct Route to Jamaica: LIAT Air is starting the first-ever direct flights between Pointe-à-Pitre (Guadeloupe) and Montego Bay (Jamaica) on July 14, twice weekly, timed ahead of Reggae Sumfest. Regional Airlift Partnerships: Winair, Contour Airlines and LIAT Air/Air Caraïbes partnerships are also being framed as steps to fix the Caribbean’s fragmented airlift, making island-hopping less expensive and more practical. Maritime Mobility in Guadeloupe: Partners behind the KARULINK project met in Guadeloupe to push feasibility for regular passenger maritime routes, better transport connections, and more sustainable travel between islands. Travel Planning Tip: UK travelers are reminded to get a GHIC before Europe trips to access state healthcare at local cost if needed.
