Caribbean Airline Limited (CAL) Airport Manager Carl Stuart said CAL is still in the process of reviewing its airfares to offer customers more choices.
“We have been reviewing fare status and we will be offering more choices and much more comparable fare than any other carriers that fly into this part of the region,” he added.
Meanwhile Stuart said the recent move by the Trinidad and Tobago government to cut the airline’s fuel subvention will not affect the company’s operations. He expressed the view in a recent interview with Guyana Times International, in which he pointed out that the airline is striving for efficiency and effectiveness at all level of its operations.
According to Stuart, CAL’s chief executive officer and chairman recently met with officials in Guyana and one of the company’s plans is to come up with a strategy that can sustain the airline at all ends.
He also contended that the airline’s operations will not be affected by the recent decision taken by the U.S. Department of Transport to stop CAL’s local carriers from having direct flights from Guyana to the U.S. The company also offers flights twice daily to the Caribbean, London and Toronto.
“It’s not that they are not in favour, but pertaining to our operations, Caribbean Airlines schedule has not been affected and will continue to have regular flights out of Guyana,” Stuart said.
He said CAL is not threatened by new airlines operating in Guyana, but focuses on offering comparable fares to other airlines.
“CAL welcomes competition… We serve a common interest, our fare status is unique and one that most of our competition will attempt to match,” he said.
