Call sign "Biscayne", they have 737-800s and do mostly charters. They do have a contract with Martinair Holland to fly the continuation flights from MIA to San Jose, Costa Rica. (The Martinair flights originate in AMS with 767ERs) I also think they had a recent contract flying Airtran painted 738s for them from ATL to FLL? Anyway, they do a lot of charters for football teams etc...


Bye Bye--General Lee

Can anyone give examples of where they fly? I heard from somebody that they fly the 737-800s across the pond on MAC flights. I have seen them doing the football charters.

Don't think they're ETOPS, so across the pond is probably out, but they have been flying into Gitmo, and some domestice military charters.

I have seen Miami Air folks in Iceland, so they must be approved for overwater ops of some kind. This particular crew was continuing on to Germany I think. Very nice equipment, but that is all I know.

Also had one next to us in Bucharest, Romania of all places.

The temporary deal AirTran had with Miami Air to augment service between ATL and FLL has expired. It was only in effect for a few months in order to fill a gap in the schedule.

I've seen them in Gadansk, Poland. Yeah, they're ETOPs.
