Caribbean Airlines advises that its teams are proactively working to manage and update its operational schedules following severe flight disruptions on August 20, due to a high volume of sick calls from pilots.
The airline is working on recovery flights for displaced passengers of cancelled services. However due to the number of individuals impacted, this process is currently ongoing.
Some international and domestic flights for August 21 are still impacted and our dedicated Reservations Service Centre is actively working to contact all affected customers.
