Canadian Based - Westjet.

[Jumbie]

Ladies and gents not sure if you all already know, but westjet (http://www.westjet.com) now fly to Trinidad. Cost me about $250 less than Caribbean airlines for the carnival season. My sister booked 2 weeks back and it was $350 less than Caribbean airlines at that time. 40 lb limit and no inservice meal, but at least we have more options now. Additionally, if you've never flown with westjet before, I've found their service to be good.

BTW, you can also ask your travel agent about flights with Canjet (can't make a booking on their website). Supposedly they're also flying to Trinidad now.

One of the good thing about westjet is that you can cancel your flight up to 2 hrs prior to departure. You'll get a credit for another flight (within the yr), and you only lose $50 off your original ticket price. Plus you can also transfer tickets from one name to another if you want (have to be in the same family..I think).

I try to be patriotic, but is like Caribbean airlines want us to pay for their purchase of Air Jamaica (ridiculous prices on flights from toronto). So I say.. eff them.

jus so? I'm telling you my experience man.

[just cool]

Does delta and continental still fly to trinidad from NY?

CAL have good service, but only in first class, that's about it, also their ground staff sucks bison cock big time! they are mean antogonistic and down right rudeeee!!

the only reason i still fly them is bc of the terror business and that they would be least of the lot to get caught up in the mad jihadist pathway. 

apart from that, and the fact that they take pride in air craft maintenance and their "EX BEE WEE" pilots who are excellent fly boys who pride themselves on safty, that is the only reason they still get my coins, or else i woulda jump ship long time ago.

Caribbean Airlines cancelled all my miles because I didn't fly with them for the past 2 years. Miles going back to BWIA days I lost. Over 90000 miles they cancel from me. Patriotism my ass. They could take my flag and stick it up their unprofitable and inefficient cunnyholes.

Almost every airline in the world would`ve done that. This is why I make the odd CC purchase to keep my Air Canada miles going.

But JC, those are some damn good reasons to continue flying with them. As long as CAL maintains their high safety standards they will always get my dollars. Though I personally never had any probs with their ground crew or cabin crew, I understand how their poor customer service attitude could be a turn-off....but their attitudes are simply a reflection of the poor customer service standards that exist in T&T....so when you step on a CAL aircraft consider yourself already in sweet T&T  .

[NYtriniwhiteboy..]

personally i have had good and bad experiences with CAL..especially when i was flying home from the states. But i had a lot more bad experiences with continental when i used to fly with them.
But right now in the UK I can't be sure when CAL flying as they seem to make changes to their schedule too often so my flight home done booked wit BA..Plus BA have more leg room
