TRELLIS BAY, Beef Island, VI- American Airlines (AA) is increasing flights to the Virgin Islands (VI), a move welcomed by the BVI Airports Authority (BVIAA).
These “planned enhancements” are part of AA’s winter schedule, a statement to Virgin Islands News Online (VINO) on Sunday, July 20, 2025, informed.
The new flights will be a late evening arrival from Miami International Airport (MIA) into Terrance B. Lettsome International Airport (EIS), followed by an early morning departure at 8:00 a.m. from EIS to MIA.
“This development is in direct alignment with demand signals identified by the BVIAA and local stakeholders from as early as the launch of American Airlines’ inaugural service,” the statement continued.
It explained that the schedule adjustments cater to the needs of our local population, business community, and visitors alike, offering greater flexibility and much-needed options for early arrivals into Miami and for connecting late evening flights from Miami into the VI.
