Fresh off a newly-launched codeshare agreement with Delta Air Lines, Caribbean carrier Silver Airways has announced a similar agreement with American Airlines. 

That means travelers can book tickets that combine segments on American Airlines and Silver on a single ticket. 

It also means travelers can check their bags right through to their final destination. 

The agreement covers more than 180 Caribbean flights each week. 

The carrier is based in Fort Lauderdale and focuses on flights to The Bahamas and within the Caribbean out of its hub in San Juan, Puerto Rico. 

“As we welcome American Airlines to our codeshare family, we are thrilled to be providing their customers with extended reach throughout Silver Airways’ extensive Caribbean network with our safe, reliable and customer-friendly service,” said Silver Airways CEO Steve Rossum.
