Sint MaartenAbout the airline

Fleet
Winair (IATA: WM, ICAO: WIA) is Sint Maarten's primary regional carrier, established in 1961. The airline operates from Princess Juliana Airport, its main hub, serving destinations across the Caribbean and providing essential connectivity between island communities.
The airline's network focuses on regional routes, connecting smaller islands and destinations that benefit from dedicated service to the Caribbean archipelago. This hub-and-spoke model allows Winair to consolidate passenger flows and optimize frequency on key regional corridors.
Winair's fleet comprises ATR turboprop aircraft (ATR 42 and ATR 72), which are well-suited to Caribbean operations. These twin-engine regional jets offer reliability, fuel efficiency, and the performance characteristics needed for shorter regional routes and airfields common throughout the Caribbean island network.
