Sunrise Airways just begin offering same-day service between St. Kitts and Saint Lucia.

The new connectivity, which started this week, will help connectivity between the two islands and provide a boost for island-hoppers.

“We are excited about this new flight route, which not only provides a convenient travel option for passengers but also opens up new opportunities for cultural and economic exchanges between our islands,” said Dr. Ernest Hilaire, Minister of Tourism in Saint Lucia. “Our partnership with Sunrise Airways and our marketing initiatives in St. Kitts highlight our commitment to fostering stronger regional connections and promoting Saint Lucia as a premier travel destination.”

The new service was announced in St. Kitts during a collaborative marketing initiative between the Saint Lucia Tourism Authority and Sunrise Airways, held last month. 

The service will depart from Robert L. Bradshaw International Airport to George F.L. Charles Airport, operating on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. 

Starting July 15, the service will run daily, with a 20-minute stopover in Antigua.
