Trinidad and Tobago has signed air services agreements with Ghana and Panama on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York. The agreements were concluded on Monday, 21 September, and reported on Tuesday and Wednesday.

They establish a framework for air services between Trinidad and Tobago and the two countries. The Government says the arrangements could support tourism, trade, investment and closer travel links with Latin America and Africa.

Transport and Civil Aviation Minister Eli Zakour welcomed the agreements as part of efforts to expand the country’s international aviation partnerships. The signing does not by itself establish a new airline route or a start date for flights; the reports reviewed do not provide a confirmed operating timetable.
