iram Prashad is very optimistic of the new arrangements being put in place by Caribbean Airlines to improve the services offered to Guyanese air-travellers. The new arrangements were tabled during a recent visit, by senior executives from Caribbean Airlines including the new Chairman, George Nicholas and Vice-Chairman Mohan Jaikarran. The executives met with President Bharat Jagdeo, Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, Minister of Transport and Hydraulics Robeson Benn and Minister Prashad at State House.
Minister Prashad noted that the meeting was fruitful and expressed his satisfaction with the plans and projections that Caribbean Airlines has outlined especially as it relates to Guyana and efforts to assist the Tourism Ministry in promoting tourism.
Minister Prashad stated that Caribbean Airlines is exploring the possibility of flying from Ogle to Brazil which is a good link since a lot of persons travel from Brazil to Guyana through Lethem. This step is also expected to increase integration between the two countries.
He added that the arrangements proposed by Caribbean Airlines would be a good boost for more airlifts into Guyana, especially during the peak periods, as more persons realize the tourism product.
