24 April, 2019: Silver Airways has launched its regularly scheduled flights aboard its new ATR -600 series aircraft. The first flight left Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport at 10:40 a.m. and landed at Key West International Airport at 11:55 am (EST).
Silver Airways is reinventing the regional flying sector by being the first US carrier to operate the technologically advanced, customer friendly ATR -600 series aircraft. Silver Airways has received three new ATR 42-600 aircraft from NAC. The aircraft is designed for short-haul markets, but with a similar look, feel and customer amenities of larger jetliners.
The new aircraft will allow Silver to grow its service in the Southeastern United States, the Bahamas and the Caribbean. By initially introducing the ATR 42-600 aircraft, with seating for 46, Silver now has the unique ability to provide quicker direct flights to even more short and medium-haul leisure and business destinations in both domestic and nearby international markets.
