AGP Executive Report
Last update: 12 hours agoSargassum Response: More than 60 regional experts and stakeholders are meeting in Dominica this week under SARSEA to shape National Strategic Plans for tackling the seaweed surge, with field missions in Martinique and Guadeloupe set to start June 1. Humanitarian Preparedness: In Guadeloupe, ABRCS representatives just completed a regional WASH training focused on emergency water, sanitation, hygiene, and disaster coordination. Air Connectivity Shock: Caribbean Airlines is cutting routes and reducing frequencies from June 1—ending Dominica and St Kitts links and the Ogle (Guyana)–Suriname service, while dropping Martinique and Guadeloupe flights to twice weekly—citing long-running losses on unprofitable routes and pointing passengers to refunds, rebooking, and a possible codeshare partner. Regional Context: The airline’s move follows a wider pattern of intra-Caribbean carriers collapsing or retrenching in recent years, raising pressure for a more unified transport strategy.
