Silver Airways announced that it is starting new twice weekly
service between Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport
(FLL) and New Bight Airport Cat Island, Bahamas (TBI) beginning
February 13, 2019.
To celebrate the new service, Silver is offering introductory
fares from $98* available at silverairways.com for a limited time
for travel between February 13, 2019 and May 22, 2019, for
ticketing before December 17, 2018.
To complement the new service, Silver also offers convenient
connections from major cities across the United States, including
New York City, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Washington, DC,
through its interline partners, including JetBlue Airways, United
Airlines, American Airlines and Delta Air Lines. In addition,
Silver provides connections to important Florida cities, including
Daytona Beach, Orlando and Tampa/St. Petersburg.
“We are thrilled to be adding Cat Island to Silver’s already
extensive network of Bahamian Family Islands, which includes more
routes between Florida and the Bahamas than any other airline,”
said Silver Airways CEO Steve Rossum.
“Congratulations to Silver Airways for their continued growth at
Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport,” said Mark Gale,
CEO/Director of Aviation. “Cat Island in the southern Bahamas is an
unspoiled gem which offers travelers a new destination currently
unserved by our commercial airlines.”
Cat Island’s untouched beaches are ideal for the classic
get-away-from-it-all escape. Divers, snorkelers, sailors and
fishing enthusiasts relish in the waters of this tranquil, 50-mile
long island. The highest point in the Islands of The Bahamas is
located here at Mt. Alvernia – a whopping 206 feet – and the east
coast of Cat Island is known for its eight-mile pink sand beach,
Fire Beach.
