Aviation Cuts: Starting June 1, Caribbean Airlines will stop the Dominica–Suriname, St. Kitts–Suriname, and Ogle–Suriname routes, and will cut Martinique and Guadeloupe service to twice weekly—leaving fewer direct links into northern South America and reshuffling travel options for business and diaspora passengers. OECS Climate Agenda: Dominica will host the OECS 13th Council of Ministers Environmental Sustainability meeting next week (May 27–28), with ministers set to tackle climate finance, ecosystem restoration, marine pollution, sustainable fisheries, renewable energy, biodiversity, and disaster resilience. India–Dominica Development: India’s Minister of State for External Affairs Pabitra Margherita signed two India-funded MOUs in Dominica, including pharmacopoeia cooperation and road rehabilitation, and visited Kalinago Territory projects on climate-smart agriculture, restoration, and sustainable cultural tourism. Tourism Momentum: Dominica’s stayover arrivals rose 10% in the first quarter of 2026, building on last year’s growth and strengthening the island’s nature-and-wellness positioning. Regional Watch: The week also flagged wider climate pressure across the Caribbean and Latin America, alongside ongoing preparations for the Grade Six National Assessment.
