The Dutch Caribbean Cooperation of Airports is currently conducting an innovative travel survey focusing on interisland travel within the Dutch Caribbean

The Dutch Caribbean Cooperation of Airports (DCCA), representing six Caribbean airports within the Kingdom of the Netherlands (Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao, Saba, Sint Maarten, and Sint Eustatius), is thrilled to announce its first of a kind travel survey, which was rolled out during the summer months across all member islands of the DCCA.

This survey was meticulously crafted to unearth valuable insights and discern travel patterns between the Dutch Caribbean islands, aiming to enhance the affordability, accessibility, and efficiency of interisland travel for our residents.

The travel and airline industries are ever evolving, and DCCA recognizes the significance of staying at the forefront of these changes. Through the comprehensive survey, the DCCA seeks to gain crucial data that will enable the Dutch Caribbean islands and airports to make informed decisions, drive innovation, and achieve sustainable success.

A Successful Media Tour Highlighted the Survey’s Importance

Recently, representatives from DCCA in Aruba and Curaçao concluded a highly successful media tour in Curaçao to promote the survey among the island's residents. This tour included appearances on prominent platforms such as the TV Direct morning show “Mainta,” Radio Direct hosted by Ruvette Dirksz, and “Moru Bondia” at TeleCuracao. During these appearances, the DCCA’s representatives effectively conveyed the survey’s significance to the local community. The survey results will be presented during the upcoming DCCA conference taking place in Curaçao in November. Representatives from Aruba included, Mrs. Jo-Anne Meaux-Arends, Aviation Business Development Executive, and Mrs. Joanne Christiaans, DCCA Program Manager. Curaçao was represented by Ms. Peggy Croes, Senior Vice President Aviation Market Development.
