BermudAir Expands New York Service With New LGA and EWR Flights

(BERMUDA) BermudAir will enter New York’s largest airports this fall, launching new nonstop links between Bermuda and both LaGuardia (LGA) and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) in the week of October 26, 2025. The carrier will run twice-weekly flights on each route, its first service at these major hubs and a clear shift away from past operations at Westchester County Airport (HPN), which will end once the new flights begin.

Tickets are on sale now, with one-way fares starting at $129 and service operated by the Embraer 175 configured with 10 Business Class seats and 60 Economy Class seats.

The move positions BermudAir to reach a far larger share of Northeast U.S. travelers, especially those seeking winter sun in Bermuda and the Caribbean. According to analysis by VisaVerge.com, the timing—just ahead of peak cold-weather demand—aligns with broader network changes the airline has planned across the East Coast and Canada 🇨🇦.

Service launch and schedule

BermudAir’s rollout splits across two airports and two midweek/weekend patterns designed to capture both leisure and corporate demand.

• Bermuda–Newark (EWR): Starts October 26, 2025, operating Thursdays and Sundays
• Bermuda–LaGuardia (LGA): Starts October 29, 2025, operating Wednesdays and Saturdays
• Aircraft: Embraer 175 (10 Business / 60 Economy)
• Fares: From $129 one-way
• Booking: Available now at BermudAir’s official site: https://flybermudair.com

The company will also debut a new subsidiary, AnguillAir, with twice-weekly seasonal service from Newark to Anguilla (AXA) beginning December 18, 2025, operating Thursdays and Sundays. Anguilla tourism leaders, including Minister Cardigan Connor and Director of Tourism Jameel Rochester, welcomed the Newark–AXA link as a boost for visitors from the Northeast corridor, citing easier access for island vacations during the winter months.

BermudAir’s New York expansion will replace the Westchester County Airport (HPN) service once flights from LaGuardia and Newark are live. The shift follows the airline’s broader change from its 2023 launch model—when it flew all-business class—to a dual-cabin approach that now supports a growing map of 10 U.S. and Canadian airports.

Market context and policy considerations

The airline’s New York entry deepens its push into key East Coast and Canadian markets. Recent developments include new or seasonal plans tied to Boston, Montreal, Richmond, Providence, and Baltimore, with further adjustments expected into winter 2025–2026.

For Northeast U.S. residents, the timing matters: two weekly flights from both LaGuardia (LGA) and Newark land squarely in peak demand months for trips to Bermuda, and the Anguilla route adds a second island option reachable from the same metro area.

From a competitive standpoint:

• BermudAir will be the only carrier operating LaGuardia–Bermuda nonstop.
• At Newark, United Airlines remains the only carrier offering daily flights to Bermuda.
• This mix—sole operator at one airport and selective competition at another—gives the smaller carrier a chance to build a regular following while keeping fares sharp on days it flies.

Industry watchers note BermudAir’s access to highly sought-after slots at both LGA and EWR is notable for a young airline; the company has not disclosed how it secured the slots.

Travel planning remains straightforward for most customers. The schedule lines up midweek and weekend options for short leisure breaks, work trips, and longer vacations.

• Business travelers benefit from predictable days and typical New York morning/afternoon slot timings.
• Families may favor weekend returns that reduce time away from school.
• For Anguilla-bound travelers, Newark’s reach across the tri-state region helps AnguillAir tap a large pool of winter travelers seeking easier access to the Caribbean.

On the policy side, cross-border flyers still need to meet all entry rules when traveling to or from the United States 🇺🇸. For official guidance on documents, admissibility, and inspection, travelers should review U.S. Customs and Border Protection resources at https://www.cbp.gov/travel/international-visitors. This information is essential for visitors connecting through or entering the U.S., including those pairing a Bermuda trip with a Newark–Anguilla itinerary.

Financial and competitive pressures

The rapid build-out comes with challenges. BermudAir faces a lawsuit from Skyport, which runs Bermuda’s L.F. Wade International Airport, over millions in unpaid airport fees, according to industry reports. While the carrier continues to add routes, analysts are watching how any financial strain could affect operations over the coming year.

The airline has also said its network remains fluid:

• Charleston (CHS) service ends October 26, 2025
• Hartford (BDL) service ends December 14, 2025

These changes reflect a rebalancing toward larger markets with stronger year-round demand and better connecting options.

CEO and Founder Adam Scott framed the New York growth as a major step for both leisure and corporate customers, pointing to greater flexibility and convenience. He also said the Newark–Anguilla link gives the company a new way to serve travelers who prize reliable, high-quality island trips, describing strong demand for simple, dependable access to Caribbean destinations.

Anguilla’s tourism leaders echoed that message, saying the route would make it easier than ever for Northeast travelers to reach the island in peak season.

Key practical takeaways for travelers:
– New options to reach Bermuda directly from two of the busiest New York–New Jersey airports
– Simple booking through BermudAir’s website, with entry-level fares from $129
– Choice of cabins on the Embraer 175, including a small Business Class section for flyers who need extra space or flexibility
– A new Newark–Anguilla path under the AnguillAir brand that aligns with winter vacation demand

For the airline, the stakes are high. Access to LaGuardia (LGA) and Newark gives BermudAir a stronger platform in the country’s largest air market, just as it retires service at nearby Westchester. But the carrier will need to preserve those airport slots, settle financial disputes, and manage growth carefully if it wants to hold its place against larger rivals.

Success would likely mean more seasonal choices for East Coast travelers into 2026, while any setback could prompt further network reshaping. United’s daily Newark service remains the strongest competitor on frequency, yet BermudAir’s LGA monopoly on the Bermuda route could prove a steady draw for Manhattan and Queens travelers who value a shorter airport trip and a true nonstop.

That, combined with Anguilla’s new link, creates a two-island play from one metro area—an approach that may appeal to travelers planning combined itineraries or families seeking flexible dates.

BermudAir’s reservations and customer support are available on its official site, with schedules and any updates tied to the start dates above. As the first flights approach, customers should:

1. Book early for preferred days.
2. Monitor fare sales.
3. Confirm document needs through official government channels.

Industry observers will track load factors, fare trends, and on-time performance closely in the first months. If the airline can keep costs in check and maintain steady demand, the New York jump may set the tone for the rest of its East Coast plans.
