Calgary to Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago - $451 CAD roundtrip including taxes

A beach in Trinidad and Tobago

WestJet has dropped the price of their February 2017 flights from Calgary to Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago down to $451 CAD roundtrip including taxes.

The flights have 1 stop in Toronto each way.

It's unusual for WestJet to drop the prices of their flights from Western Canada to Trinidad and Tobago, especially to 40% below the typical best price.

The flights are also as fast as Calgary to Trinidad and Tobago can be done. The flights do have a pretty tight connection in Toronto in the way there (1 hr) and a 3 hr connection on the way home.

Trinidad and Tobago is in the very southern Caribbean, with average highs of around 30C in February.

Below, I've posted some info about flying between Trinidad (POS) and Tobago (TAB) for $65 CAD roundtrip including taxes.

On Skyscanner, you may find that the 4th flight down the list of the search results are the fastest flights.

Where to stay?

Airbnb rentals go for an average of about $160 CAD/night on Trinidad and Tobago, but it looks like there are a high number of well reviewed places to stay for $80 to $100 CAD per night (for 2 people).

Try this search: Airbnb search: Trinidad and Tobago

Flying between Trinidad (POS) and Tobago (TAB)

The country of Trinidad and Tobago is comprised of 2 islands. Trinidad's landscape is more mangrove and rain forest, while Tobago is probably more what you're picturing when you think of a beautiful Caribbean island (palm trees, white sand, etc).

It costs around $48 USD ($65 CAD) roundtrip including taxes to fly between Port of Spain (POS) on Trinidad, and Tobago (TAB), using Caribbean Airlines.

There are flights departing nearly every hour, and it takes about 25 minutes. The first piece of checked luggage is included free.

You can find these flights at Caribbean-Airlines.com.

    Woah Chris, you didn't even mention Carnival in Port of Spain! February 27/28 next year (and many days on either side). To attend or... avoid... *shrug*

    Good point Curran!

    Looks like every date has sold out. Hopefully WestJet will drop some more of these at some point. They've been dropping them from Toronto every now and then for the past month or so.
