The Dutch Caribbean island of Bonaire is set for a big boost to its airlift this winter season, Caribbean Journal has learned. 

American Airlines and Delta have already relaunched their service to the island; now, United Airlines is relaunching its service from both Houston and Newark. 

On Nov. 6, United will resume once-weekly flights between Houston and Bonaire, along with weekly Saturday flights between Newark and Bonaire.
