Emirates has activated an interline partnership with Bahamasair, expanding its network to The Bahamas through connections via two Florida gateways.
The unilateral partnership enables Emirates customers to connect on Bahamasair services from Miami and Orlando to Nassau/Paradise Island and Freeport on Grand Bahama Island. The arrangement came into effect following a Memorandum of Understanding signed by both carriers in June.
Customers can book journeys from across Emirates’ network to Orlando or Miami and connect to Nassau or Freeport on a single ticket. The partnership includes a single baggage policy covering both airlines.

Emirates operates daily flights to Miami using retrofitted Boeing 777 aircraft with four cabin classes. The carrier also provides five services per week to Orlando aboard Boeing 777 aircraft in a three-class configuration.
Miami and Orlando are among the 12 US destinations served by the carrier, which describes itself as the world’s largest international airline.
Bahamasair operates services from the two Florida gateways to its destinations using Boeing 737 aircraft.
Emirates signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of The Bahamas earlier this year to promote tourism to the Caribbean nation.
