Freeport, Grand Bahama, Bahamas - SkyBahamas is pleased to announce the commencement of service into Provo, Turks & Caicos from Grand Bahama Island starting on November 20th, 2009 with a special price of only $499 Round Trip!

On October 14th SkyBahamas, the Bahamian regional airline took an inaugural flight to Turks and Caicos Islands.  The Bahamas Weekly News Team and approximately 30 persons who are travel, business, and media partners were invited to join SkyBahamas management on a two-hour flight to sight-see on the beautiful city of Providenciales. Captains for the flight were Travis Stein and Blake Maura. On board offering first class SkyBahamas in-flight service was Jamal Evans.

The Bahamas Weekly presents our VIDEO coverage of the trip which presents words from Provo resident and past resident of Grand Bahama, Deandra Hamilton who is still in media, now with PTV;  Peter Turnquest, Chairman of SkyBahamas;  Captain Randy Butler, CEO/President of SkyBahamas.

While there, the group had lunch at Seven Stars resort where SkyBahamas’ CEO/President, Captain Randy Butler and Kevin Turnquest, Chairman of SkyBahamas had the opportunity to bring remarks on future plans to both the Turks and Caicos and Grand Bahama media about this initiative to commence non-stop flights from Grand Bahama Island to Turks and Caicos on a weekly basis.


“One of our biggest focus is to build in the communities that we service. We intend to be true partners in this community and help build the economy in Providenciales ,” Mr. Turnquest said.

“Our plan is to no longer be just the regional airline of The Bahamas, but we at Sky are strategically positioning ourselves to be the industry leader of the Caribbean region.”
