Silver Airways, with headquarters in Florida is all set to launch flights to the Bahamas next month.
The airline will make its maiden flight from Jacksonville to Marsh Harbor in the Bahamas on June 15.
The launch of new flights could be a stepping stone towards addition of more flights to Caribbean destinations or Latin American destinations.
With the addition of new flights, Jacksonville International Airport will become true to its name.
Previously, Air Canada had launched nonstop flights to Toronto in 2001 but services were discontinued the same year.
Currently Jet Blue is flying nonstop to Jacksonville to Puerto Rico since 2011, but because Puerto Rico is a part of commonwealth of the United State the services are not considered international.
As services to the Bahamas are international the airline has asked passengers to bring with them their passports.
Silver will open a ticket counter at Jacksonville International Airport to facilitate passengers.
The airline will fly between Jacksonville and Marsh Harbour once a week on Saturday and return on the same day.
