Caribbean Airlines’ fleet is getting bigger. 

The Port-of-Spain-based air carrier introduced its ninth Boeing 737-8 aircraft into commercial operations this week. 

The new plane operated the return flight from Trinidad’s Piarco International Airport to Miami this week. 

““The entry of our ninth 737-8 aircraft, 9Y-SUR into our commercial schedule, is another milestone in our fleet renewal,” said Garvin Medera, CEO of Caribbean Airlines. “The new fleet has enabled us to provide our customers with a significantly enhanced on-board experience and has also benefited the environment through lower emissions and fuel burn reductions.  Customer feedback has been positive, indicating that we’ve been able to deliver on our commitment to REset Expectations.”

The airline has been expanding its network in the Caribbean this year. 

That includes new direct service between New York and Tobago, renewed daily service between Trinidad and Grenada, among others. 

“We are looking forward to 2023 and have some exciting plans in store,” Medera said.
