Silver also announced new flights between Tampa and Bimini, also set to launch April 20.

“We are thrilled to continue expanding our already robust network between Florida and the Bahamas with new service between West Palm Beach and Bimini,” said Jason Bewley, Silver Airways CFO and Executive Vice President.  “We look forward to giving travelers in West Palm Beach and Tampa convenient options to experience the new Hilton at Resorts World Bimini and why it truly is better in the Bahamas.”
