Island Air starts jet charter service
Island Air is inaugurating a jet charter service today that will be able to take passengers anywhere in the world.
The Bombardier Challenger business jet, which can accommodate up to nine passengers, is equipped with a galley, six leather recliners and a three-place settee that converts to a twin bed. It has one flight attendant.
Travelers will be picked up by a limousine and taken to the aircraft to be boarded for immediate departure.
Island Air also offers 92 daily commercial flights between all islands on its nine 37-seat de Havilland Dash-8 turboprop aircraft. The carrier will add two more Dash-8s to its fleet next month and return one plane in the fall when its lease ends, Island Air Chief Executive Rob Mauracher said yesterday. In addition, Island Air will take delivery next Saturday of a 78-seat Bombardier Q400 turboprop aircraft, he said. The Q400 will go into service in March and a second one will start flights in June. The company is negotiating for a third Q400, Mauracher said.
