Fleet
Maya Island Air (IATA: MY, ICAO: MYD) is Belize's established regional carrier, operating since 1962. The airline has built a reputation for connecting remote island communities and smaller destinations across the Caribbean, playing a vital role in regional connectivity where larger carriers do not operate.
The airline's operations are centered at Philip S. W. Goldson International Airport in Belize City, the country's primary air hub. Maya Island Air serves as a lifeline for inter-island travel and regional connections, offering frequent schedules to destinations that depend on reliable air service. Its network focus remains on regional routes within and around Central America and the Caribbean.
The fleet comprises Cessna 208 and British Aerospace Jetstream 32 aircraft, twin-engine types well-suited to the airline's operational environment. These aircraft provide reliable service on short regional routes and unprepared airstrips, reflecting the airline's specialization in serving destinations with limited infrastructure. The fleet composition enables Maya Island Air to maintain consistent scheduling on its regional network.
