Southern Air Charter (IATA: PL, ICAO: SOA) is a charter and regional airline based in the Bahamas, operating since 1998. The airline is rooted in the Nassau aviation market, with its primary hub at Lynden Pindling International Airport, serving the Caribbean, the Bahamas, and connections to south Florida.
The airline's network focuses on charter operations and scheduled regional services, catering to business travelers, tourists, and cargo movements. This charter-first business model allows Southern Air Charter flexibility in routing and frequency, adapting to demand patterns across island destinations and mainland connections.
Southern Air Charter operates a streamlined fleet of Beechcraft 1900 aircraft, twin-engine turboprops known for reliability on short-haul regional routes. These nimble, pressurized aircraft are suited to the airline's Caribbean mission profile, serving smaller airports and enabling point-to-point connections that larger aircraft cannot efficiently reach.
