Santo Domingo.- The governments of the Dominican Republic and Trinidad and Tobago signed an Air Services Agreement aimed at strengthening trade, tourism, and investment opportunities between the two Caribbean nations.

The pact complements the Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation and includes provisions granting overflight and landing rights, authorizing non-scheduled and multi-destination air transport, and establishing strict aviation safety measures.

During the signing ceremony, Álvarez highlighted the Dominican Republic’s growing role as a regional aviation hub, driven by expanded airport infrastructure, new air routes, and policies supporting commercial aviation. He also described Trinidad and Tobago as a strategic partner for advancing Caribbean integration in areas such as trade, tourism, logistics, energy, and sustainable development.
