Winair to add ATR42s

Since a few years, Winair from Sint Maarten has been wet-leasing a single ATR42 from Air Antilles and the success of these operations has prompted the airline to now take the step and acquire two ATR42-500s. The first ATR is expected to be delivered in March 2023, the second a month later.

The aircraft will join a fleet which today consists of three DHC-6-300s. Winair, founded in 1961, will use the ATRs from Sint Maarten to Antigua, Aruba, Barbados, Bonaire, Curacao, Dominica, Port au Prince, St. Lucia, and Tortola.
