BermudAir is setting a new course for Caribbean-bound travelers this winter with the introduction of nonstop flights from Newark Liberty International Airport to Anguilla’s Clayton J. Lloyd International Airport, beginning December 18, 2025. The new service promises to deliver a faster, easier, and more luxurious travel experience for passengers from the U.S. Northeast, giving them direct access to one of the Caribbean’s most exclusive destinations.
Seamless Gateway to a Caribbean Paradise
Operating twice weekly on Thursdays and Sundays, the Newark–Anguilla route is strategically scheduled for convenience. Flights will depart Newark at 10:30 a.m. and arrive in Anguilla at 4:00 p.m., giving travelers time to check into their resort and enjoy the island’s golden-hour views. The return service departs at 7:35 p.m., landing back in Newark at 11:00 p.m., allowing visitors a full final day on the island before heading home.
The addition of this route reflects a growing trend in premium leisure travel, where U.S. vacationers are seeking more direct connections to upscale island destinations without lengthy layovers or ferry transfers.
Part of a Larger Expansion
This new service is BermudAir’s third nonstop connection to Anguilla in the same month, joining newly announced routes from Boston Logan and Baltimore/Washington International. By targeting key East Coast hubs, the airline is positioning itself as a leading choice for U.S. travelers heading to Anguilla.
The timing is no accident — December marks the start of Anguilla’s high tourism season, when weather conditions are ideal and demand for luxury island experiences peaks. These expanded connections will cater to both first-time visitors and returning guests who value convenience.
Why Anguilla is Rising on the Luxury Travel Map
Anguilla has long been celebrated for its serenity, soft white-sand beaches, and crystal-clear waters. The island offers a rare combination of high-end resorts, intimate boutique hotels, and world-class dining, making it a favorite for honeymooners, celebrities, and affluent families.
The new nonstop route from Newark will be especially attractive to travelers from New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania, cutting travel time to under four hours and bypassing the traditional requirement to connect through St. Maarten.
With its 33 beaches, from the famous Shoal Bay East to secluded coves like Little Bay, and its vibrant culinary scene — which blends Caribbean flavors with global influences — Anguilla is well positioned to capture a larger share of the U.S. luxury travel market.
Boost for Tourism and the Local Economy
Tourism is Anguilla’s main economic driver, and improved air connectivity is a direct investment in the island’s future. The Anguilla Tourist Board anticipates a surge in visitor arrivals once the Newark service launches, benefiting resorts, villas, restaurants, and local tour operators.
The ease of access is expected to encourage repeat visits, lengthening the average stay and increasing overall visitor spending. Local businesses, from water sports providers to artisanal craft markets, are poised to see higher demand.
BermudAir’s Strategy: Connecting Luxury Destinations
BermudAir’s growth isn’t limited to Anguilla. This winter, the airline will also roll out year-round nonstop service from Newark and LaGuardia to Bermuda, as well as twice-weekly flights from Hartford’s Bradley International Airport. Seasonal routes to Bermuda will expand from Montreal, Richmond, and Providence, strengthening BermudAir’s position in the premium leisure travel segment.
By focusing on direct-to-island connectivity from major Northeast markets, BermudAir is tapping into a lucrative niche of travelers who value time efficiency and comfort as much as the destination itself.
Luxury Travel Meets Convenience
The Newark–Anguilla service is more than just a new route — it’s a gateway to an effortless travel experience. Passengers will be able to step off the plane and into a private transfer or luxury taxi within minutes, arriving at their beachfront resort without the typical island-hopping logistics.
This streamlined journey aligns perfectly with Anguilla’s exclusive, low-density tourism model, where the focus is on delivering personalized service and privacy rather than mass-market tourism.
What Travelers Can Expect
- Flight Schedule: Thursdays & Sundays, mid-morning departures from Newark, evening returns from Anguilla.
- Travel Time: Under four hours from the Northeast U.S. to Anguilla’s shores.
- Target Audience: Affluent leisure travelers, honeymooners, destination wedding guests, and returning Anguilla enthusiasts.
- Peak Season Advantage: Launching in December ensures maximum exposure during Anguilla’s busiest travel period.
Conclusion
With the launch of nonstop Newark–Anguilla flights, BermudAir is redefining access to one of the Caribbean’s most coveted luxury escapes. The move will not only enhance the travel experience for Northeast U.S. vacationers but also stimulate Anguilla’s economy by driving new tourism revenue.
For those seeking turquoise waters, five-star resorts, and tranquil beaches, the journey just got shorter, smoother, and more indulgent. As BermudAir continues to expand its Caribbean network, Anguilla is set to become an even brighter star on the luxury travel map.
