And while American is reaching into Belize, one local airline is reaching out
to Mexico. Your next trip to Cancun from Belize can be by air. That is because
Maya Island Air will start flying to Cancun, Guatemala City, and Honduras next
month. The airline announced that it is going regional on July 8th. That’s
when the airline will begin flying two return trips to Cancun daily and daily
roundtrips to San Pedro Sula Honduras and Guatemala City.
The airline will be using two ATR 72s that can seat 68 passengers. It will
be initially staffed with crew from Swift Air but they will eventually be replaced
with Belizeans who are receiving training. The inaugural flight will be on Wednesday
July 8th.
