BermudAir has announced that it has ordered an additional ten aircraft to bolster its expanding list of routes.

Reuters reported that the Bermudian-based airline announced at the Farnborough International Airshow that it had ordered the A220-300 aircraft through affiliated company Odyssey in March.

The airline also said that it plans to add up to 20 of the aircraft by 2030.

In a statement, the airline said that the A220-300 aircraft will feature a “comfortable 135-seat, three-class configuration designed to complement BermudAir’s premium leisure proposition” along with expanded overhead bins.

Adam Scott, BermudAir founder and CEO, said: “The A220 is the ideal aircraft to support the next phase of BermudAir’s growth.

“Its exceptional range, operating economics and performance at constrained airports will allow us to connect more communities across Bermuda, the Caribbean, Central and North America with direct, reliable and convenient air service.

“Just as importantly, the A220 offers an outstanding passenger experience.”

Benoît de Saint-Exupéry, the Airbus EVP Sales of the Commercial Aircraft business, said the purchase validated the aircraft’s role as a “tool of targeted regional development”.

He added: “This agreement introduces the A220 to a distinct operational environment in the Atlantic and Caribbean, demonstrating how its efficiency supports tailored business models.

“We thank BermudAir for their trust in Airbus and look forward to supporting their network expansion.”

BermudAir, which operates flights to a range of destinations in the US, Canada and Anguilla, is scheduled to expand into Grand Cayman, the Turks & Caicos Islands, Belize and Guatemala in December.

The airline is also offering a 15 per cent discount for flights purchased before the end of this month for travel by October 31, 2026 using the promo code ‘BDA15’ at checkout at www.flybermudair.com.

Adam Scott, the founder and chief executive of the carrier, said at the time of the announcement of new routes that BermudAir was “thrilled” at its growth in the Caribbean.
