Tourism Corporation Bonaire in collaboration with
Bonaire International Airport (BIA) and BONHATA is pleased to announce that American
Airlines will significantly enhance its Miami to Bonaire (BON) route. Starting December 5,
2024, American Airlines will upgrade its current three-times-weekly winter-service to a daily
schedule, utilizing a Boeing 737 aircraft. Additionally, the airline will offer two flights on
Saturdays, starting December 7th, 2024, resulting in eight weekly flights.
This expanded service, which will operate until May 4, 2025, is a significant boost for
Bonaire’s connectivity. It will alleviate the need for double connections and increase seat
availability for interisland travel, enhancing the overall travel experience for visitors and
locals.
Miles Mercera, CEO of Tourism Corporation Bonaire, stated, "This increase in flights is a
game-changer for Bonaire, providing more convenience and accessibility for travelers. We
are excited to welcome our visitors to our island."
American Airlines has been a long-term partner and is now offering daily connections to
North America via its Miami gateway, which means more choice for travelers. The second
Saturday flight is scheduled for the late afternoon, after peak hours”, said Maarten van der
Scheer, CEO of Flamingo Airport, adding “More direct flights mean less need to travel via
other islands”.
Tickets for these new flights are now available for booking, with round-trip fares starting at
approximately $480.
