As of August 12, 2021, Tropic Ocean Airways has launched international scheduled service between Fort Lauderdale and Nassau, Bahamas.

With increasing demand for airlift into the Bahamian capital, Tropic Ocean Airways is answering the call to provide four scheduled flights per week -- Thursdays, Fridays, Sundays and Mondays - - facilitating both long weekend stays for visitors and quick transport for local residents alike.

While commercial travel times have skyrocketed, resulting in larger inconveniences when traveling such as lengthy airport lines and lack of staff to support the growing number of travelers, Tropic Ocean Airways’ new scheduled service flights offer turn-key solutions to travelers who are looking for swift and expedited boarding and arrival experiences with private fixed based operator (FBO) airports, Sheltair in Fort Lauderdale and Odyssey in Nassau. Sheltair is conveniently located on the south side of Fort Lauderdale International Airport, making onward commercial connections a seamless experience.

The Fort Lauderdale – Nassau route will be serviced aboard Cessna Caravan EX planes, accommodating up to nine passengers. As always, all Tropic Ocean Airways flights are under the command of their standard two pilot crew. Travelers only need to arrive 45 minutes prior to departure time, accompanied with the appropriate documentation for international arrival. Airborne travel times are just over one hour.

Base rates start at $350, excluding taxes and landing fees. As demand continues to grow, Tropic Ocean Airways plans to add additional airlift to support tourism and international travel needs.
