Flights Now Operate with an Earlier Departure And Same-Day Return
BASSETERRE (16TH July, 2015): The St. Kitts Tourism Authority today announces that the recently launched Liat service from Barbados non-stop to St. Kitts has shifted to its summer schedule, effective today (Wednesday, July 15, 2015). With the schedule change, the flight will depart Barbados earlier and return the same day, providing more convenient options for intra-island travelers in what is St. Kitts second largest source market, the Caribbean.
The summer schedule for the flight is as follows-
Flight Depart Arrive
LI 328 BGI 12:40pm SKB 2:20pm
LI 329 SKB 2:45pm BGI 4:25pm
These flights operate on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and provide St. Kitts with direct service from the key markets in the southern Caribbean. The service compliments existing Liat service to St. Kitts from Antigua and St. Martin (both of these flights are twice daily). St. Kitts is also served regionally by Winair from St. Maarten and by Seaborne Airlines from San Juan.
