NASSAU, BAHAMAS — US low fare carrier Frontier Airlines has announced plans to add three additional routes from the US to The Bahamas starting this fall.

International Sales Manager for Frontier Airlines Alfredo Gonzalez said yesterday that the airline will add the new routes beginning in November. The Denver-based ultra-low fare carrier started service to Nassau in June with service out of Miami.

“We started service from Miami to Nassau in June [but] we did not stop there,” said Gonzalez.

“On November 2, we will start service from Orlando to Nassau, Philadelphia to Nassau and, a few weeks later, we will start Newark to Nassau.

“We are super excited to connect the northeast United States to Nassau and of course continue our growth from Florida to Nassau.”

Gonzalez noted that Frontier boasts the youngest and most modern fleet in the United States, and is becoming a very large player in the market. It services more than 300 routes, with close to 90 percent of its business being leisure travel.

Frontier Airlines’ addition to the growing number of air carriers servicing The Bahamas is as a result of the ongoing drive by the Ministry of Tourism & Aviation and key industry partners to expand much-needed airlift to the destination as part of an overall strategy for tourism recovery.

Great news! It is obvious the Ministry of Tourism is seeking to expand the reach of North American visitors to our Bahamaland! I am always grateful for positive, uplifting news such as this. Please continue pressing ahead in this strategy to bring more visitors and investors- by extension- to our shores.

Its just as fantastic that Bahamians have an additional airline as an option via which to reach US soil. I still love Bahamasair nevertheless and hope for nothing but the best for them. However, with added competition on the horizon, our very own local air carrier might want to strategize in order to see how it can make further improvements to air travel for all Bahamian residents.
