Right or wrong? The first phase is one single plane, flying three days a week between MIA and EIS. Three round trips a week on an 86 passenger plane will be +/- 13,000 total passengers a year of the 400,000 BVI visitors per year that travel by air to the BVI. The pilots are already hired. More than $2.4 million of the $7 million is already transferred to Jerry Willoughby and the airline. There is no reason the airline cannot get off the ground and fly for a few years. The plans are actually very realistic. Whether the company will be sustainable past the first aircraft and three years remains to be seen.

Make no mistake. My preference has always been daily subsidized service with one or more of the real players in the industry. Sadly today no US major is flying planes capable of making the route between the Northeast US and EIS.

Watch for the majority of the MIA to EIS passengers to be business travelers with a few parrot heads and pirates packing sunglasses and flip flops.
