BermudAir is set to launch new nonstop flights between Fort Lauderdale and Belize City on October 26, 2026. The service aims to connect the South Florida region with popular Central American tourist destinations.
Why it matters
The route expansion provides travelers with a direct link to major attractions including Ambergris Caye, Placencia, and the Cayo District. This addition enhances accessibility to the country for leisure tourists coming from the United States.
Flights will operate three times weekly with a duration of two and a half hours using Embraer E190 aircraft. Departures from Fort Lauderdale are scheduled for 11 a.m., with return flights departing Belize City at 12:30 p.m.

Travel Outlook
This route addition mirrors the broader industry trend of carriers expanding service to high-growth Central American destinations to meet rising leisure travel demand. It marks a significant shift in regional connectivity as airlines look beyond legacy hubs to smaller, specialized vacation markets.
Travelers can leverage these scheduled Monday, Wednesday, and Friday flights to simplify transit to coastal and inland destinations. Passengers should prepare for a two and a half hour flight time, which is significantly shorter than traditional multi-stop itineraries in the region.
The takeaway
Direct flights between Fort Lauderdale and Belize City significantly reduce travel time for those visiting the Cayo District and coastal islands. Travelers looking to book these new routes should monitor the airline website for upcoming fare availability and seasonal scheduling updates.
