This milestone marks a meaningful advancement for Anguilla’s aviation sector and reflects the continued strengthening of regional connectivity across the Caribbean. The introduction of this new route underscores the growth and advancement of local aviation enterprise, while creating expanded opportunities for travel, tourism, commerce, and wider regional connectivity.
The commemorative occasion was attended by fellow pilots, Ministers of the Government of Anguilla, representatives of the Ministry of Infrastructure, Communications, Utilities, Housing, Information Technology & E-Government Services, the Ministry of Health, Tourism and Sports, the Anguilla Air & Seaport Authority, the Anguilla Tourist Board, and the newly appointed Junior Minister of Tourism, all of whom joined the management and staff of Trans Anguilla Airways in celebrating this important development.
The newly introduced scheduled service will operate on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, offering a convenient and reliable connection between Anguilla and Tortola. With an approximate flight time of 45 minutes, the route provides travellers with improved accessibility and greater ease of movement between the two islands.
Commenting on the significance of the new service, Director of Tourism Jameel Rochester stated, “The launch of Trans Anguilla Airways’ inaugural service to Tortola marks a significant milestone for Anguilla and the wider region. This imitative is not only a step forward in enhancing regional connectivity, but also part of a broader vision to strengthen links among the British Overseas Territories and deepen integration across the Caribbean. Improved access between our islands is essential to driving tourism growth, facilitating business opportunities and fostering stronger cultural and economic ties. We commend Trans Anguilla Airways on this achievement and look forward to the meaningful and lasting opportunities this service will create for both destinations and the region as a whole.”
This new route not only improves inter-island access, but also reinforces a shared commitment to regional collaboration, connectivity, and sustainable tourism development.
