\u201cWe are excited to bring these new seasonal summer destinations\nto Bostonians and New Yorkers alike, in addition to our existing seasonal\nsummer destinations from New York to East Hampton, Sag Harbor, Montauk, and\nShelter Island, and Plymouth, MA.,\u201d said Peter Manice, Director of Scheduled\nService. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manice continued, \u201cWe are the only seaplane operator in the\nNortheast with scheduled commuter service, allowing a semi-private, super-fast\nexperience to hard-to-reach popular summer destinations, while also continuing\nto serve our core Manhattan to Boston Harbor customers.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bypassing the congestion of summer traffic, Tailwind Air is\na pioneer in regional urban mobility, while using long-proven technology and an\nexperienced pilot corps. Tailwind Air erases the hassle and expense of\ncommuting to an airport, train, ferry, or rental car and lengthy check-in,\nairport time, and drive time. Due to the eight-passenger capacity of the\nseaplanes, and small, efficient facilities, guests can arrive for check-in as\nlittle as 10 minutes before departure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Tailwind Air\u2019s turboprop seaplane fleet is young, less\nthan five years on average, seaplane travel certainly is not. The Manhattan\nSkyport opened in 1936 and has been hosting popular seaplane travel for\ndecades. For nearly 100 years, seaplane operations have been part of the core\ntransportation landscape of maritime cities such as Seattle, Miami, and\nVancouver. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boston Harbor\u2013Manhattan flights, and a complete schedule for\nall flights operated by Tailwind Air, can be found at flytailwind.com<\/a>. Tickets can be purchased on the website,\nby phone, or through local and online travel agencies via a codeshare\npartnership with Southern Airways Express. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the addition of Provincetown Harbor, Tailwind Air now\nserves four destinations from its Boston Harbor base. Manhattan is served three\ntimes daily seven days a week. Plymouth, MA is served daily. One-stop same\nplane service to East Hampton (HTO) is also available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the addition of Provincetown Harbor, Tailwind Air now\nserves eight destinations from its Manhattan base. Manhattan destinations are\nBoston, East Hampton, Sag Harbor, Shelter Island, Montauk, Provincetown,\nPlymouth, and Bridgeport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For commuters, Tailwind Air offers heavily discounted\nprepaid books of 10, 20, and 50 tickets, which can be shared with colleagues,\nfriends, and family.  Tailwind also offers an innovative Fast Lane Club\nmembership, which provides access to member-only fares, and significant additional\nbenefits across all of our routes.
