An airline spokeswoman says the Boeing 737-800 made an emergency descent, causing the oxygen masks to deploy. Laura Asbjornsen said there were no injuries to passengers or crew and the plane landed safely in Barbados. There were 48 people on board Sunday's flight.
Asbjornsen said Monday that the aircraft is undergoing a thorough maintenance review.
Caribbean Airlines is based in Trinidad.
