History
 | This article contains content that is written like an advertisement. (July 2018) |
The airline was established in 1991 as InterIsland Airways, Ltd. In 2003, the company re-branded to become Air Turks & Caicos.[4] The airline's travel destinations included: Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Bahamas and Puerto Rico.[5]
By 1999, the company had grown to become a full airline. Up until this point, the owner of the company, Lyndon Gardiner, was acting as a pilot for the company. Due to the growth of the company, Lyndon Gardiner retired from his position as pilot to run the company.
In 2008, Air Turks and Caicos merged with its competitor, SkyKing. The SkyKing brand was integrated within the Air Turks and Caicos operations on 22 October 2008 and by mid-2009 the airline continued operating with a single Air Operators Certificate.[6]
In November 2013, after operating for 10 years as Air Turks & Caicos, the company re-branded itself as InterCaribbean Airways due to the increasing demand for airline travel in the Caribbean area.
By June 2019, InterCaribbean Airways, decided to add the larger and faster Embraer ERJ-145 regional jet aircraft to its fleet.
In addition to the ERJ-145 regional jets, the airline currently operates Embraer EMB 120 Brasilia propjets, in addition to one Embraer EMB 120 aircraft, as well as a De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter turboprop aircraft.[7] InterCaribbean also previously operated the Britten-Norman BN-2A Islander twin prop aircraft. The Twin Otter aircraft joined the fleet in December 2015, while the Britten-Norman Islander aircraft has been retired.[5]
Destinations
As of August 2022, InterCaribbean Airways operates scheduled flights to the following destinations within the Caribbean:

The airline leased Embraer EMB-120 Brasilia from October 2014 to February 2016 to Cayman Airways.; for scheduled interisland passenger flights in the Cayman Islands.[11] The airline acquired two Embraer 145[12][13] regional jets, which it began operating commercially from early June 2019, and has since acquired an additional ERJ-145 aircraft.
