interCaribbean Airways to launch nonstop Barbados-Martinique flights in January 2027

Barbados: interCaribbean Airways will introduce nonstop flights between Barbados and Martinique from January 25, 2027, expanding air links between the English-speaking and French-speaking Caribbean.

A new development is in place as interCaribbean Airways has announced plans to launch nonstop flights between Grantley Adams International Airport (BGI) in Barbados and Martinique Aime Cesaire International Airport (FDF) in Fort-de-France, Martinique.

The service will improve air connectivity to Martinique as the duration of the nonstop flight is just 55 minutes. InterCaribbean’s regional network expands pertaining to the new service, reinforcing links between the French and English speaking Caribbean whilst creating further opportunities for tourism, family travel and business.

The flight’s route will be aided by interCaribbean ATR turboprop aircraft, operating three times weekly on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The schedule enables forward connections
through the airline’s Barbados hub.

interCaribbean Airways is the leading regional airline serving intra Caribbean flights to more destinations across the Caribbean islands than any other airline. A current and planned network of 24 cities with plans for even more are in the works. The network stretches to the west, Barbados to the east, and Guyana to the South.

The CEO of interCaribbean Airways, Trevor Sadler said, “Improving connectivity within the Caribbean remains to our central strategy. Martinique is an important addition to our network and another step toward bringing Caribbean communities closer together. By connecting Martinique through our Barbados hub, we can provide travellers with access to a wider regional network while supporting business, tourism and family travel. Our focus remains on developing sustainable routes that make regional travel more convenient and accessible."

The launch of the new service will provide passengers with greater opportunities to travel between Martinique and other destinations across the Caribbean. It will link Martinique to the interCaribbean regional network through its Barbados hub. From Barbados, travellers can access destinations in Trinidad, Antigua, St. Kitts, St. Maarten, Guyana and Tortola, as well as destinations in the Northern Caribbean, including the Bahamas, Jamaica and the Turks and Caicos Islands.

Flight schedule - Effective 25 January, 2027

All times are local. Schedules are tentative.

Therefore, Barbados’ position will strengthen as a fundamental interCaribbean hub further building upon the airline’s continued expansion of regional services.
