The Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO) will host the 2026
CTO Air Connectivity Summit in Bermuda in February, a one-day gathering of senior
public and private tourism stakeholders, to address the future of Caribbean air
connectivity.
Themed “Integrating Aviation and Regional Tourism
Development,” the summit, which will take place on February 24, will bring together ministers, airline executives,
airport leaders and investors to discuss improving air access, supporting
sustainable route development and aligning aviation strategy with regional
tourism growth.
Participants will also explore new partnerships and
identify practical solutions to shared airlift challenges facing the region.
Program highlights include a keynote address examining the
current state and future outlook for Caribbean aviation, the presentation of
a CTO air connectivity study by ASM, panel discussions on international and
intra-regional route development, a ministerial dialogue on Caribbean airlift
strategy, and sessions exploring the link between aviation infrastructure and
tourism development.
The Air Connectivity Summit will coincide with CTO’s
Spring Business Meetings, scheduled for February 23, at The Hamilton Princess
& Beach Club in Bermuda.
The spring session will bring together CTO
leadership, member countries, allied members and industry stakeholders for a
series of business meetings, bilateral engagements and strategic discussions,
providing a broader platform for collaboration and decision-making ahead of
the dedicated Air Connectivity Summit.
Summit attendees will include tourism ministers, directors
of tourism, officials from ministries of transport and finance, airport
executives, senior airline leaders and route planners, infrastructure
developers, regulators, sustainability and innovation experts, regional and
international trade associations, research firms, media, and local tourism
stakeholders from Bermuda.
