American Airlines announces the only U.S. flights to Bimini from MIA

American Airlines is giving travelers a new way to fall in love with the Bahamas with flights from Miami International Airport to Bimini (BIM) starting Feb. 14.

American will be the only airline offering nonstop service to Bimini from the U.S. when service launches in February. From there, travelers can easily visit North or South Bimini. With stunning beachfront resorts, excursions to see dolphins in the open waters, snorkeling, and even world-class big game fishing, American’s new flight will make it convenient for globetrotters to enjoy new experiences.

American will operate round-trip flights on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays from MIA with Embraer 175 aircraft featuring premium cabin offerings. Customers can connect through MIA to Bimini from more than 80 destinations in the U.S. and Canada.

Bimini will be American’s seventh destination in the Bahamas. This winter, American will operate more than 30 peak daily flights to the Bahamas, the most of any U.S. airline. In addition to being the only carrier connecting Bimini with the U.S. nonstop, American is also the only U.S. airline flying to Governor’s Harbour (GHB) and Freeport (FPO).

In response to continued traveler interest in the Bahamas, American has also added additional frequencies during the December holiday season from MIA to Marsh Harbour (MHH) and North Eleuthera (ELH).

Building on the airline’s 35-year legacy as Miami’s hometown airline, American continues to invest in its industry-leading hub at MIA. With nonstop service to more than 160 destinations in more than 45 countries and territories, American is the largest airline operating at MIA.

This year, American has grown its footprint at MIA by announcing flights to Destin-Fort Walton Beach, Florida (VPS), Milan (MXP), and Sarasota, Florida (SRQ). This builds on the recently launched Miami service to Rome (FCO) and South Caicos, Turks and Caicos (XSC).

This winter, the airline will operate a record-setting schedule from MIA with more than 430 peak daily departures. Earlier this year, American announced plans to build a brand-new Flagship® lounge at MIA and expand its Admirals Club® lounge footprint to more than double available lounge space for customers traveling through the airport.
