Airlines will sometimes try to sell you roundabout routings, and I can’t help but share one that gave me a bit of a chuckle. While I won’t be flying it this time around, it’s definitely some inspiration for a future review trip…
Honestly, I would’ve booked this, except I hate redeyes and want to be awake and alert for the two days I’m in the Bahamas, so I decided against the routing.
I have to figure out an interesting Caribbean review trip
At some point in the near future when I have a couple of days free to travel (beyond what I’ve already planned), I’d really like to give Caribbean Airlines business class a shot, on the carrier’s Boeing 737 MAX. It seems like one of the better business class products in the Caribbean.
For example, it would be fun to fly Air France’s Airbus A320 “island hopper,” which goes from Miami to Pointe-a-Pitre (PTP), to Fort-de-France (FDF), to Cayenne (CAY). However, actually linking that with Caribbean Airlines in the other direction is easier said than done.

For example, at least on Google flights, there’s not a single option to fly between Cayenne and Port of Spain on one ticket. Can anyone think of a fun and creative way to make this work, possibly adding in yet another airline? In a dream world, I’d also check out Cayman Airways’ Boeing 737 MAX business class, to experience that Sir Turtle magic, but maybe I’m just getting greedy. 😉
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
