Regional Air Connectivity Shock: Caribbean Airlines will cut routes from June 1, ending flights to Dominica and St. Kitts and discontinuing the Ogle (Guyana)–Suriname corridor, while reducing service to Martinique and Guadeloupe to twice weekly—moves tied to long-running losses and a push for “operational reliability” and financial stability; passengers with affected bookings will be contacted and offered rebooking, refunds, or travel credit, and the airline is working toward a codeshare to widen options. Local Governance & Accountability: In St. Kitts and Nevis, Tourism Minister Marsha Henderson says CAL’s withdrawal from the St. Kitts route was made without prior consultation, raising concerns among travellers and businesses even as officials seek a new airline partner. Marine Environment & Sargassum: SARSEA meetings in Dominica (May 26–28) bring together regional experts to shape national strategic plans for sargassum management, with follow-up field missions planned for Martinique and Guadeloupe starting June 1. Disaster-Ready Water Systems: ABRCS representatives completed regional WASH emergency training in Guadeloupe (May 18–22), strengthening preparedness for water, sanitation, and hygiene responses during crises. Health Systems Access: PAHO/WHO and OECS-PPS will convene in Saint Lucia (May 28–29) to improve access to safe, quality-assured medicines and health technologies across Eastern Caribbean states.
