Gulfstream International Airlines plans to expand service to Freeport, Grand Bahama (FPO), with the launch of a new daily flight from West Palm Beach, FL (PBI). The new service begins November 8, 2011.
With the expanded service, Gulfstream now offers six daily weekday flights to Grand Bahama – five from Fort Lauderdale and one from West Palm Beach. Weekend service will expand to seven flights – six from Fort Lauderdale and one from West Palm Beach.
“Gulfstream continues to offer service to more destinations in The Bahamas than any other US carrier,” said Darrell Richardson, CEO of Gulfstream. “This new daily flight provides an attractive option for tourists, especially now, as we get closer to the winter season people begin to plan warm-weather getaways.”
Grand Bahama combines the excitement of Nassau with the laid-back charm of the Out Islands, to offer a unique Bahamian escape all its own. From large, sprawling resorts, lively attractions and casinos, to secluded beaches, incredible boating, fishing, scuba diving, snorkeling and more, Grand Bahama has everything that leisure travelers love about The Bahamas all in one spot.
Palm Beach County Airports Director Bruce Pelly stated: “We are pleased to be able to offer our Palm Beach County residents and the surrounding communities the opportunity to now fly direct from Palm Beach International Airport to Freeport daily on Gulfstream, and we look forward to future opportunities to partner with Gulfstream.”
New Gulfstream flights between West Palm Beach and Grand Bahama are on sale now for departures beginning November 8, 2011.
