BermudAir Launches Direct Flights to Toronto and Halifax

NEW ROUTES CONNECT BERMUDA WITH KEY CANADIAN CITIES AND ENHANCE YEAR-ROUND TRAVEL OPTIONS TO SEVEN NORTH AMERICAN DESTINATIONS

BermudAir, Bermuda's premier boutique airline, today announced its expansion into Canada with direct flights to Toronto, Ontario, and Halifax, Nova Scotia, marking a significant milestone in the airline's growth. Starting May 17, the airline will begin operations between Bermuda's L.F. Wade International Airport (BDA) and Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), with flights to Halifax Stanfield International Airport (YHZ) commencing on May 25. Tickets are now on sale with special introductory fares available until April 10.

This strategic expansion addresses the increasing demand for direct flights between Bermuda and these prominent Canadian cities, underscoring BermudAir's dedication to enhancing travel options for both leisure and business travelers. Toronto, Canada's largest city, is a bustling metropolis with strong economic ties to Bermuda, while Halifax, recognized for its rich history and strategic importance in the Atlantic region, shares historical, cultural, and commercial connections with Bermuda. The new routes are poised to become vital links that foster increased tourism and business exchanges between the two countries.

"There has been strong demand for travel between Bermuda and Canada and we’re proud to continue delivering on our commitment to provide additional connectivity with these new routes," said Adam Scott, Founder & CEO of BermudAir. "Toronto and Halifax are currently underserved, and this expansion aligns with our mission to provide year-round service, meeting the needs of both Bermudians and travelers from Canada.”

The Minister of Transport, the Hon. Wayne Furbert, JP, MP, said, "I am delighted that BermudAir's expansion of services will include prominent Canadian destinations. This development is welcomed news and brings much-needed convenience for travel to Bermuda. With direct flights connecting Bermuda with Toronto and Halifax, BermudAir effectively meets the demand that locals and visitors have been seeking. As a valued partner in enhancing our air travel offerings, BermudAir is bolstering Bermuda's marketing efforts, signifying a progressive stride forward."

The addition of Toronto and Halifax expands BermudAir's operational footprint and reinforces its role as a key connector between Bermuda and North America. The new services complement the airline's existing routes, highlighting its continuous growth and dedication to fulfilling the travel needs of its passengers. Adding the Toronto and Halifax routes means that BermudAir’s full schedule will operate 2,700 flights over a 12-month period offering 178,000 seats that were not previously available to and from Bermuda.

“With increased demand for travel to Bermuda this winter, BermudAir’s new service will help connect travelers looking to escape to the beauty of the island,” said Kurush Minocher, Executive Director, Airlines Relations and Customer Experience, Greater Toronto Airports Authority. “We are also pleased to welcome BermudAir, our newest international airline.”

“We’re pleased to welcome BermudAir as our newest airline partner and put Bermuda back on our non-stop route map at Halifax Stanfield,” said Marie Manning, VP Business Development & Chief Commercial Officer, Halifax International Airport Authority. “We’ve had many requests from our community for a non-stop flight connecting Halifax and Bermuda, and with the short flight time of about two hours, we are confident it will be popular for business and leisure travel year-round.”

BermudAir will operate Embraer E175 aircraft on the Canadian routes, featuring a dual-class cabin, with 14 seats in a business cabin and 52 seats in an economy cabin. Committed to delivering a premium in-flight experience, both cabins will provide superior customer service, complimentary food and beverage service (inclusive of alcohol), and exceptional comfort throughout the journey. The business cabin service will offer additional booking flexibility, higher checked baggage allowances, preferential fare conditions for changes and cancellations, and more.

BermudAir's increasing network now connects Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), Westchester County Airport (HPN), Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI), Orlando International Airport (MCO), and two major Canadian destinations, Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) and Halifax Stanfield International Airport (YHZ), to the L.F. Wade International Airport in Bermuda (BDA).

BermudAir is distributed in the GDS under the ‘W1’ WorldTicket code with BermudAir flight numbers and validated on W2.
