The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) of the United States is in the process of an audit of allairline operators in The Bahamas servicing routes into the US. This involves not only Bahamasairbut also our competitors Trans International Airways and Western Air, which are all registered byCivil Aviation Authority Bahamas (CAAB).
This audit covers planes already in service.
As a result, new additions to the fleet cannot be cleared until this process is completed. Weanticipate this process to be completed shortly and the certification of the new aircraft to beaddressed by FAA and its addition to our US bound fleet.
Again, we reiterate that this policy affects not only Bahamasair, but all operators servicing the USmarket from The Bahamas and registered to CAAB.
In the interim, the new 737 jet has been certified by Civil Aviation Authority Bahamas to fly intonon-US destinations. This includes routes to Haiti, Turks & Caicos Islands and Cuba. Additionally,the craft is certified to service all domestic routes within The Bahamas.

the craft is certified to service all domestic routes within The Bahamas.
