FlyExclusive is launching air charter service out of Tamiami Airport (KTMB) in Florida to link its members and guests between South Florida, the Bahamas, and the Caribbean, including destinations that may not have runway availability. Beginning this month, the Luxury Caravan and Amphibious Caravan service will provide passengers with direct access to private beaches, remote islands, and waterfront properties.
The company is using a Cessna Caravan and an amphibious Caravan for the service, with the former launching this month and the latter in mid-July.
“There’s a clear gap in the market—and the time is right to introduce a service our customers have been asking for,” said FlyExclusive founder and CEO Jim Segrave. “With the launch of our new amphibious floatplane and land-based Caravan, we’re expanding our ability to connect travelers to the most sought-after island destinations in the region.”
FlyExclusive anticipates popular destinations for the service will span locations in Florida, such as Key West, Naples, Marco Island, Everglades City, Miami’s Fisher Island, and Ocean Reef Club (Key Largo), as well as Bahamas locations including Nassau, Harbour Island, Exumas, Eleuthera, Bimini, and Abaco Islands. In the Caribbean, FlyExclusive cited Turks and Caicos, Dominican Republic, U.S. Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and several private islands.
