St Vincent
| Weekly departures | Weekly seats | Destinations | Airlines | Largest carrier share |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 60 | 4,772 | 9 | 10 | 23.1% |
St Vincent ranks 20th overall (29.7) and 19th regionally (39.5). It is a spoke because it serves 6 Caribbean islands and a regional connector needs 7, so it sits one island below that threshold.
The Caribbean takes 64.4% of seats, the United States 32.3% and Canada 3.4%. Leading routes are Barbados, with 20 departures and 1,700 seats on Caribbean Airlines (BW), interCaribbean (JY) and Virgin Atlantic (VS); Grenada with 14; Miami (MIA), with 7 departures and 896 seats on American Airlines (AA); and Trinidad and St Lucia with 6 each.
Redundancy is the highest in the index: two or more airlines serve 55.6% of destinations. interCaribbean is the largest carrier at 23.1% of seats (HHI 1,658). Of its Caribbean seats, 840 are Virgin Atlantic legs to Barbados of flights continuing to London Heathrow (LHR). A code with no identified operator accounts for 2.4% of seats, on the Grenada route. The Grenadines airstrips (Bequia, Canouan, Mustique and Union Island) are not indexed. In full-year 2025 data, departing flights to the United States were 68.0% full.
Score and rank
The connectivity score is an index on 0–100 built from departures, destinations, airlines, hub links and seats; the regional score uses the Caribbean subset only. Both are defined in the methodology. Not a percentage — an island does not have "96% connectivity".
| Measure | Score | Rank |
|---|---|---|
| Overall | 29.7 | #20 of 28 |
| Regional (Caribbean only) | 39.5 | #19 of 28 |

Resilience
How exposed this island's connectivity is to one airline or one route stopping. All three figures are derived from the route table below, so they can be checked against it.
| Carrier concentration (HHI on seats) | 1,658 of 10,000 — higher is more concentrated |
|---|---|
| Largest carrier by seats | interCaribbean at 23.1% of seats |
| Destinations served by 2+ airlines | 5 of 10 (50.0%) |
| Most-served Caribbean destination | BGI, carrying 41.7% of Caribbean departures |

Load factors
Actual passengers against actual seats, from Eurostat (2024) and BTS T-100 (2025). Monthly and historical: these do not describe the reference week. Route-months the source reports inconsistently are excluded, so every figure here is publishable.
| Source | Direction | Market | Months | Load factor |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| T100I | Inbound | North America | 12 | 69.8% |
| T100I | Outbound | Caribbean | 1 | 42.6% |
| T100I | Outbound | North America | 12 | 68.0% |
Low season against peak
Peak week pending. This edition measures the week of 19 October 2026 only, and that week is an early shoulder week rather than the bottom of the season — some winter services start in October and others in November and December. The peak week is collected separately, and no low-versus-peak comparison is shown until it exists.
