After 3 years of struggle, Caribbean Airlines (CAL) has finally decided to abort the London in 2016. In spite of local Trinidadian politician, Dr Rowley not being in favour of CAL’s route expansion to London from Day 1. He stated the following in 2012: “This is an ill-conceived expansion and it has no sustainable future, but to be a reimposed drain on the Treasury at a time of chronic budget deficits. I guess it will continue until once again we will come to a point where we can stand the haemorrhaging no more.” How profitable would this route be for CAL?
