A New Way to Fly From London to St. Barth

How to fly from London to St. Barth.

Getting to St. Barth from the United Kingdom just got a lot easier.

British Airways and Tradewind Aviation have signed an interline agreement, meaning passengers traveling from London can now reserve travel to St. Barth via Antigua with the convenience of a single-ticket purchase and baggage transfer for a journey combining both airlines.

It’s a boon for travelers both from the UK and travelers connecting through London from other major European airports.

Tradewind operates flights around the Caribbean with a hub in Puerto Rico, using a fleet of Pilatus PC-12 aircraft serving complimentary onboard snacks and drinks.

“Tradewind Aviation’s new interline ticketing agreement with British Airways offers a world of convenience for travelers headed from London to the Caribbean, with one-ticket purchase and baggage transfer to the exclusive island of St. Barths. We are excited to partner with British Airways and to offer not just convenience, but exciting new destinations for their travelers,” said Eric Zipkin, President of Tradewind Aviation.
