FlyMontserrat to Resume Service between Antigua and Barbuda

FlyMontserrat is to resume its service between Antigua and Barbuda from Monday, March 30.

The Montserrat-based airline stepped in to help in December when SVG Air pulled out of Montserrat, Antigua and Barbuda leaving passengers without service for six weeks in the peak season. FlyMontserrat has now been asked by the Antiguan government to resume the service with a one-year contract.

The airline is a frequent visitor to Barbuda flying charters and medivacs and managing director, Nigel Harris, confirmed that the airline is delighted to return on a more permanent basis.

FlyMontserrat is scheduling two round trip flights every day departing 8am and 4pm from Antigua and at 8.30am and 4.30pm from Barbuda for the 20 minute flight using twin-engine ten-seat Islander aircraft.

Fares are set at EC$150 each way and can be booked online, through the handling agent in Barbuda, at the FlyMontserrat check-in desk at VC Bird International Airport in Antigua or through the FlyMontserrat office.
