The Reality Reports

Caribbean Passport Power Rankings Tell A Clear Story: For ten years running, Barbados has claimed the top spot among Caribbean nations for passport strength.  The island nation ranks 20th globally in the 2025 Henley Passport Index, which measures how many countries citizens can visit without obtaining a visa beforehand.  This achievement puts Barbados ahead of all its Caribbean neighbors, including Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Dominican Republic.

A Unique Situation: Delaware’s Lack Of Air Service  Delaware holds the unusual distinction of being the only U.S. state without scheduled commercial airline service.  This situation stems from the challenges faced by Wilmington Airport (ILG), which has struggled to maintain consistent operations from major airlines.  Frontier Airlines, the last carrier to offer commercial flights from the state, ceased operations in 2022 due to insufficient demand, leaving Delaware residents reliant on nearby airports like Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) or Baltimore-Washington International Airport (BWI) for air travel.
