In a significant boost for the island of St Kitts, American Airlines has launched second daily nonstop flight to the island from Miami.
The new service, which kicked off this week, will be operating for the season.
It means a wave of new seats for the destination as it enters the peak winter tourist season.
St Kitts has been one of the buzziest destinations in the Caribbean in the last year, with new hotels, resurgent tourism numbers and a brand-new tourism identity that launched earlier this year.
American now has two flights each day from Miami International Airport to St Kitts’ Robert L Bradshaw International Airport.
The first departs Miami at 10:05 AM, arriving in St Kitts at 2:12 PM.
The later flight departs at 12:05 PM, arriving in St Kitts at 4:04 PM.
Both flights take just around three hours.
It’s a major addition for the island as its seeks to highlight its natural environment, its community and its culture as part of the new “Venture Deeper” Campaign.
It comes after St Kitts removed all of its entry protocols last fall, a move that has buoyed very strong tourism growth heading into 2023.
