Emirates has today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Bahamasair establishing an interline partnership, which will benefit customers traveling to the Bahamas from Florida.
On Wednesday (June 11, 2025), Emirates announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to establish an interline partnership with Bahamasair. This will enable Emirates to expand their reach in the Caribbean, allowing guests to utilise the services of the Bahamian national carrier from Florida to one of the three Island destinations. Under the unilateral agreement, customers traveling with Emirates to Miami or Orlando can now connect to Bahamasair flights to Nassau, Freeport or San Salvador, with the convenience of booking itineraries with both airlines on a single ticket. Emirates’ customers will also enjoy a generous baggage allowance when flying on Bahamasair.
In Wednesday’s announcement, Emirates’ Deputy President and Chief Commercial Officer, Adnan Kazim, said,
“We are pleased to establish an interline partnership with Bahamasair to expand our reach to new and exciting destinations and offer travel options for our customers planning journeys to the Caribbean nation. The interline partnership offers customers the convenience of connecting in Florida for travel onwards to points across the islands of The Bahamas, while enjoying competitive fare pricing, the convenience of booking the entire journey on a single ticket and a generous baggage policy.
“This partnership also supports our agreement with The Bahamas’ Ministry of Foreign Affairs to promote the Caribbean destination across our network.”
Also commenting on the new interline partnership, Bahamasair’s Managing Director, Tracy Cooper, added,
“This partnership significantly elevates Bahamasair’s global profile and opens access to invaluable expertise and new markets. By aligning with one of the world’s most respected airlines, we strengthen our capabilities and lay the groundwork for sustained international growth.”
As part of the MoU, both airlines will also explore opportunities to enhance their cargo interline cooperation, as well as potential partnerships under their frequent flyer programs. Emirates’ Florida gateways, Miami and Orlando, are among the 12 U.S. destinations served by Emirates. The carrier serves Miami daily with a Boeing 777, and flies to Orlando five times weekly, connecting travelers from across their expansive network of over 140 destinations.
