TOBAGO Hotel and Tourism Association (THTA) president Reginald Mac Lean says subsidies should be removed from most Caribbean Airlines Ltd (CAL) flights on the domestic route to facilitate greater efficiency on the airbridge.

He said removing the subsidy would be a way to address CAL’s existing booking system, which, he believes, is “damaging Tobago.”

Mac Lean, who was elected THTA president at the organisation’s AGM on April 8, used the $50 fee to change airline tickets as an example.
