The Nassau Guardian recently reported that Abaco is to receive more air services to both Marsh Harbour and Treasure Cay. The new flights are a result of the Florida airline, Gulfstream International Airlines, expanding its schedule.

Gulfstream International Airlines will soon offer an enhanced non-stop service between Palm Beach International and Marsh Harbour, increasing its service from one to two weekday frequencies.

Fort Lauderdale International will also see increased weekday frequencies to Treasure Cay, up from one weekday roundtrip to two.

These new flights will be operated under Gulfstream’s “Continental Connection” affiliation with Continental Airlines.

Under this arrangement, Gulfstream coordinates pricing and schedules with Continental Airlines.

According to their press release:

“Gulfstream is delighted to expand our schedule with additional non-stop air service linking Palm Beach with Marsh Harbour in the Bahamas.
