Caribbean Airlines confirms that all its international and domestic flights scheduled for Tuesday were affected as a result of many of its pilots who were rostered to operate flights calling in sick. Caribbean Airlines apologizes to its loyal passengers for all inconvenience caused by these delays.

Delta Air Lines is launching nonstop flights to Barbados beginning on December 4, 2014, twice weekly between Grantley Adams International Airport in Bridgetown and both New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport, and Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.

Southwest Airlines spread its wings to the islands on July 1 with the launch of service to Aruba; Nassau, Bahamas; and Montego Bay, Jamaica, from Atlanta, Baltimore and Orlando. It is Southwest’s first international service.

This summer’s expansion of airlift to some of the Caribbean’s top tourist destinations is continuing. The latest addition will occur in Belize, where Delta Airlines will launch new flights to the country departing from Atlanta beginning in December, according to a Belize Tourism Board statement.
