Fleet
Saint Barth Commuter (IATA: PV, ICAO: SBU) is a Caribbean regional carrier headquartered in Saint Barthélemy. Founded in 1995, the airline has spent nearly three decades providing essential air transport links across the eastern Caribbean region.
The airline operates from its main hub at Saint Barthelemy Airport, which serves as the base for all flight operations. Saint Barth Commuter focuses on regional connectivity, linking Saint Barthélemy with neighboring islands and serving the specialized needs of Caribbean island communities where airport infrastructure limits aircraft size and capability.
The fleet consists of the Cessna 208, a single-engine turboprop aircraft ideally suited for operations on shorter runways and remote airstrips. This aircraft type reflects the airline's operational niche: reliable, fuel-efficient regional service adapted to the Caribbean's geographic and infrastructural conditions. The Cessna 208's performance characteristics make it well-suited for the challenging runway environments common across the Lesser Antilles.
