BermudAir to launch new airline linking Baltimore and Boston to the Caribbean
BermudAir, the startup airline known for its signature cocktails and nonstop flights to Bermuda, is expanding to a second Caribbean island this winter: Anguilla.
The carrier will launch "AnguillAir" with a dedicated Embraer E-Jet and its own "identity and design" in December, BermudAir said June 26. AnguillAir will initially connect the island's Clayton J. Lloyd International Airport (AXA) with two destinations already served by its sister airline: Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) and Boston Logan International Airport (BOS).
Here are the details of the new AnguillAir flights, according to its website:
- Anguilla to Baltimore: Twice weekly on Mondays and Fridays from Dec. 22, 2025, through April 6, 2026
- Anguilla to Boston: Twice weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays from Dec. 20, 2025, through April 8, 2026
Tickets for both AnguillAir routes are on sale now.

The new Anguilla service is "a reflection of what BermudAir was built to do: strengthen island connections, deliver extraordinary service, and create lasting economic value for Bermuda and beyond," Adam Scott, founder and CEO of BermudAir, said in a statement.
No word yet if AnguillAir will have a signature cocktail like BermudAir's Dark and Stormy.
The new service will significantly expand connectivity for Anguilla, a British overseas territory in the Leeward Islands. Historically, the island was primarily connected to San Juan, Puerto Rico's Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU), where travelers could connect onward to the rest of the world, schedule data from aviation analytics firm Cirium shows. American Airlines debuted Anguilla's first nonstop to the U.S. mainland, daily service to Miami International Airport (MIA), in 2021.
The airport's runway, at only 5,462 feet in length, is too short for larger planes like the Airbus A320 or Boeing 737 families.
Launched in 2023, BermudAir operates four E-Jets between Bermuda's L.F. Wade International Airport (BDA) and 10 U.S. airports, plus three in Canada. The airline initially planned to offer all-business-class flights but pivoted to a dual-class operation with both business- and economy-class seats early on.
"Rather than just being an exclusive airline for a few, we're actually an airline for the island now," Scott told TPG in 2024.
