Top 8 Reasons to Book our Nassau to Staniel Cay Flights
When it comes to how to get to Staniel Cay, there are big advantages to taking day trips from Nassau to Exuma by way of Nassau to Staniel Cay flights.
1. Save time on flights to Big Major Cay
What would normally take two hours on a ferry from Nassau, our flights to Big Major Cay can arrive in under 30 minutes.

A round trip which will save you three hours on your day — all you have to do is take one of our Nassau to Staniel Cay flights and you will be swimming with pigs in no time.
2. Witness spectacular views over Exuma Cays

A blue paradise in the middle of the Exuma Cays.
Astronauts have been quoted saying the Exuma Cays are the most beautiful region on this earth from their view in space. Luckily, you can experience that same view on our Nassau to Staniel Cay flights where you will soar right over the entire chain of Exuma islands and cays which is said to be the better half of the Bahamas.
3. Be first on your Pig Beach excursion from Nassau
Pig Beach was visited by 6.62 million people in 2018. That is a lot of people. Fortunately, a large majority of those people arrive on ferries in the early afternoon every day. If you take our Nassau to Staniel Cay flights, we can beat the crowds to Pig Beach and you can be secluded on the beach and the first to feed the pigs on the day. That is a priceless advantage of flying in the Bahamas instead of traveling by sea.
4. Fly first class luxury on Staniel Cay flights
Our Cessna Grand Caravan private air charter is a slice of luxury you will regret to leave at the end of the day. Each passenger is afforded a window seat with the largest viewing windows aboard any aircraft in the world. This will give you plenty of room to take in the beautiful views mentioned earlier. Not to mention, our private flights allow for you to be in the company of only your party and not sitting in between strangers.
If you have never flown private before, this is an experience all in itself. Let us return the romanticism and wonder of soaring through the clouds back to your commercial perception of flying.
5. Avoid big lines and queues
The worst part about taking the ferry is that you feel as if you spent half your day trip in long queues, crowded ferries, and uncomfortable situations. Well, not with Bahamas Air Tours. Our private flights means you get on and go — no waiting around for strangers. Spend more time relaxing on the beach or swimming with sharks instead of in security queues and swaying boats.

8. Avoid sea sickness
Many people, although they have never gotten sick aboard a boat before, aren’t used to the crowded, hot, and rough seas of the Caribbean and become ill on what is supposed to be a relaxing ride. If you are going to ride the ferry, we suggest bringing enough sea sickness medication for you and the people around you.
