Contour Airlines will expand its presence in the eastern Caribbean this fall.
The independent regional carrier announced Wednesday that it will connect St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands with St. Maarten, and Dominica with Trinidad and Tobago.
Flights between St. Thomas and St. Maarten will start on Oct. 5 and operate twice per week, on Mondays and Fridays. Contour will use Cyril E. King Airport in St. Thomas and Princess Juliana International Airport in St. Maarten.
Service between Dominica’s Douglas-Charles Airport and Piarco International Airport in Port of Spain will also commence Oct. 5. Flights from Dominica to Trinidad will operate on Mondays and Thursdays, and return service from Trinidad to Dominica will run on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Contour will also launch one-stop connections between San Juan, Puerto Rico, and Trinidad, and between Trinidad and St. Thomas. Flights from Trinidad to San Juan will operate on Tuesdays, with return service on Thursdays. Flights from Trinidad to St. Thomas will operate on Fridays, with return service on Mondays.
Contour said the new routes will help improve connectivity in the eastern Caribbean, expand access for tourists, and build capacity for business travel.
