Our History
The year was 1999 and Airlines were having difficulties all around but in the mind of a young Bahamian Pilot, hence, Pineapple Air Limited was born. The company was formed with a small amount of funds from his savings and financing in place for a C99 Airliner (15 seater plane). Pineapple Air received permission to operate a Charter Company through out the beautiful Islands of the Bahamas and the Caribbean and gradually built a good reputation for efficient service coupled with reasonable rates.
K. Michael Carey had a love for flying from an early age and qualified himself by receiving the necessary certifications to fly the friendly skies. He worked in his family business for some years and purchased his first plane to fly the Islands of the Bahamas as a hobby and take his family on vacations.
Today, the company has grown and now has received authorization to operate scheduled flights to Acklins, Crooked Island, Long Island, and Eleuthera, in addition to the Charter services it provides to the public.
Pineapple Air today has a staff of 18 which includes some of the best pilots in the Bahamas and a fleet of four planes including four 19 seaters.
We are growing and getting better with each flight to ensure that Pineapple Air remains "The sweetest way to fly".
