West Palm-Nassau flights are operating once daily, while the service to Marsh Harbour is operating three times per week, Silver Airways confirmed. Abaco flights are running on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.

Silver has been on an expansion push both in The Bahamas and in the Caribbean out of its San Juan hub, with the latter adding new routes to destinations like Antigua and La Romana, among others. 

That’s along with the launch late last year of the company’s first-ever service between Fort Lauderdale and Providenciales, Turks and Caicos.
