I read an article last month that Silver wrote congress for bailout cash because they were in big trouble.
When I flew from SJU to EIS in February, it was on a Seaborne Saab 340 but the ticket said operated by Silver Airways. If Seaborne stops SJU, does that mean it could still operate through Silver?
We are planning our trip for Feb 2021 and thought about buying tickets now to support the airlines if they were refundable. My issues is what happens if they go under? It's not looking great overall. Silver bought Seaborne several months ago so they are the same now.

I wish I could help but it was to be my first sail in the Southern Caribbean. We were depending on our hired captain to know the details. We have sailed with this wonderful captain three times in the BVI and since he is a "Vincey" (born in St Vincent) he knows the SC very well.

I talked to Silver Airways/Seabourne today and she said they had no plans to drop San Juan, "it was all just a rumor" she said. Don't know if she would have told me if they were planning dropping San Juan but I guess I'll just keep an eye on it and my credit

Phil--According to the original story, Seabourne has already gotten approval from the government to stop service to SJU..

Hey Carol, yea I did see that, when I talked to the customer service person, she put me on hold and talked to the manager. When she came back, she said that was not true and was just a rumor. She asked where I getting this info and seemed like she was writing it down. Guess we will see soon. I started the process to get my credit back as a refund.

Honestly, I would NEVER believe a customer service person, versus a published story. But that may be just me.
