 Caicos Express Airways has been approved to fly passengers between Providenciales and Grand Turk and is schedule to begin service Dec. 5. The carrier, which already provides service to Salt Cay, will fly nine-seat Cessnas four times a day, seven days a week to the capital island, leaving Provo at 7:30 a.m., 10:45 a.m., 2:45 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. Fares are expected to be $170 walk up and $160 three days in advance, said Caicos Express’ owner Richardson Arthur. Another airline has requested to fly that route and others, but it is still awaiting approval by the Air Transport Licensing Authority. Skycruise Airways wants to provide daily interisland service to Grand Turk, Providenciales, North Caicos and South Caicos, and service three times a week to Salt Cay. The airline would use a 19-seat Twin Otter aircraft for most flights. On some busier flights between Grand Turk and Providenciales, Skycruise would use a 30-seat Jetstream 41 twin-propeller plane, a 50-seat CRJ-200 jet or a 72-seat CRJ-700 jet. Those same aircraft would be used for international service to Ft. Lauderdale, Haiti, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Bahamas and Antigua.
