Barbados Is 99th U.S. Open Skies Partner

Agreement Reached Thursday Between The Two Countries

Representatives of the United States and Barbados have reached an Open-Skies Agreement that will liberalize U.S.-Barbados air services for airlines of both countries.  Barbados will become the 99th U.S. Open-Skies partner. "This agreement means the travelers, airlines and economies of both the United States and Barbados will benefit from competitive pricing and more convenient service," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.

Upon signature of the agreement, airlines from both countries will be allowed to select routes, destinations and prices for both passenger and cargo service based on consumer demand and market conditions. The agreement, which was reached on July 1, provides airlines, for the first time, with codesharing and intermodal rights. 

The previous U.S.-Barbados air service agreement, signed in 1982, contained restrictions on the cities that carriers could serve and placed limits on charter operations. The new agreement will remove these restrictions and provide important enhanced cargo rights.
