Caribbean airline LIAT is to axe services over the next three months in a last-ditch cost-cutting exercise.
The Antigua-based inter-island carrier warned the cuts are necessary if the airline is to continue.
Board chairman Dr Jean Holder said: "We’ll have to take a very hard look at our current schedules and the profitability of our current routes.
"We have brought in some experts to assist us in looking more deeply into the route analysis issues, but it is clear that LIAT cannot continue to provide essential social services to 21 countries in the Caribbean on a daily basis, offering close to 1 000 flights weekly, and only four countries put any funds into this operation."
Four Caribbean countries are shareholders in LIAT: Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Dominica and St Vincent.
