HYANNIS, Mass., July 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Cape Air adds a new island destination in the Caribbean with two daily flights between the Island of Anguilla and San Juan, Puerto Rico beginning on December 22, 2010.

"This is our 13th year of providing inter-island service in the Caribbean and all of us at Cape Air are excited about our newest destination," says Cape Air President Dan Wolf. "We have ensured that our Anguilla flight schedule allows for easy connections with major carriers arriving in San Juan and our convenient ticket and baggage agreements with almost all of the major carriers mean you can book your entire trip on one itinerary and check your bags through to your final destination."

Hon. Haydn Hughes, Parliamentary Secretary responsible for Tourism stated, "Anguilla is a unique destination and Cape Air will compliment its product offerings. Our Clayton J. Lloyd International Airport and staff are ready and anxious to have Cape Air on Anguilla. This will add a new dimension to our destination and I am happy to be part of this."

Merlyn Rogers, Anguilla's Director of Tourism says, "We are looking forward to a great season here in Anguilla. With Cape Air's new island service from San Juan and convenient connections with the other major airlines, access to an Anguilla vacation is easier than ever before."

This new Caribbean route complements Cape Air's existing Caribbean service for San Juan, St. Thomas, St. Croix, Tortola, Vieques, Mayaguez and Ponce. Tickets can be purchased on Expedia or Travelocity or at 866-Cape-Air where there is never a booking fee to talk with a Cape Air agent. Anguilla's airport code is AXA.

Are we regressing to Mel's days flying on those small planes to and from the Virgin Islands? I just tried making a reservation for Dec 25 and was appalled to learn that I would be expected to fly on a light cessna from SJU to AXA for 1 hour and 20 minutes and pay 520.00 plus taxes. Needless to say I declined. So disappointing.
