Fort Lauderdale-based Silver Airways has continued streamlining its Caribbean operations following last year’s acquisition of leading regional carrier Seaborne.

The company has announced that bookings for San Juan, Puerto Rico-based Seaborne’s current flight network in the Caribbean will now all be hosted on Silver’s reservation system, according to a statement.

The change applies to all Seaborne flights in the Caribbean with the exception of its seaplane operations between St Croix and St Thomas, along with Vieques Air Link routes to Culebra and Vieques.

The change applies to all flights beginning Sept. 1, according to the company.
