  1. Great news, long overdue. Thank you Caribbean Airline.

    I had the displeasure of traveling on Inter- Caribbean and it was my worst travel experience in 50 years of travel

  2. @Anonymous. I agree with you. My experience with Inter-Caribbean has been very unpleasant. And the part I dislike about them most is their inability or unwillingness to communicate with customers. For me, it is still LIAT and now Caribbean Airlines (If they fly to where I want to go)
