Airlines and destinations

  • Seaborne Airlines operating de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter turboprop seaplanes to Charlotte Amalie Harbor Seaplane Base on St. Thomas.

Historically, Virgin Islands Seaplane Shuttle operated scheduled passenger service during the 1980s from the Charlotte Amalie seaplane base with Grumman Mallard aircraft. These Grumman amphibious aircraft were powered either by piston engines or by turboprop engines via a powerplant conversion program.[3] During the 1970s, Antilles Air Boats operated several different types of seaplanes in scheduled passenger service from the harbor as well including the Consolidated PBY Catalina (Super Catalina version), Grumman Goose, Short Sandringham (S-25) and Vought Sikorsky VS-44, and Grumman Mallard.[4]

Both Antilles Airboats and The Virgin Islands Seaplane Shuttle flew to St. Thomas, San Juan, and St. John, with Antilles Airboats serving Fajardo.[5]
