Bermuda’s newest airline has announced that it is expanding its network to Canada with the introduction of flights to Toronto and Halifax. The two cities will bring the airline’s destination count from six to eight.
Details: BermudAir’s New Canadian Service
BermudAir plans on starting flights from its home base at L.F. Wade International Airport (BDA) in Hamilton, Bermuda to Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) on May 17, 2024. The route will be operated three times a week on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays.
The following week on May 25, 2024, the carrier will begin flights from L.F. Wade International Airport (BDA) to Halifax Stanfield International Airport (YHZ) in the Eastern Canadian province of Nova Scotia. This will be a once-weekly service on Saturdays.
The carrier will face competition from Air Canada on the Toronto route, with the Canadian flag carrier operating year-round service using an A319-100 under their leisure brand, Air Canada Rouge. BermudAir will be the only airline to offer nonstop service between Halifax and Bermuda.
Both new destinations are in the eastern part of Canada. With Bermuda’s location off the east coast of the continent, scheduled flying times will range from two hours and fifteen minutes to three hours and fifteen minutes. The airline will use its two Embraer E175 aircraft on the new routes.
BermudAir’s Expanding Network
Since launching operations in August of 2023, BermudAir has expanded its route network twice, including the recent entry to the Canadian market. The carrier initially positioned itself as a boutique airline with an all-business class concept but eventually launched with economy class service.
BermudAir initially flew from Bermuda to Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport (FLL) and Westchester County Airport (HPN) in New York. Earlier this month, it began operating to Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) and Orlando International Airport.
