Regional Caribbean airline Winair is expanding.

The St Maarten-based airline has announced that it is in the process of acquiring another Twin Otter aircraft “in preparation for the summer season and shoulder periods of 2016.”

“This will ensure that our schedule integrity remains constant and Winair will maintain most of its capacity to accommodate increased demand in expanded and new markets in 2016,” the company said in its latest newsletter. “It will also allow WINAIR to offer additional charter services when need arises.”

Winair has been expanding quickly in the Caribbean, with new flights across the region, including new service to Dominica’s Canefield airport.
