Silver Airways (3M)

Silver Airways is a regional airline headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, operating scheduled passenger services primarily throughout Florida and to destinations in the Bahamas and Caribbean. Founded in 2011 after acquiring the assets of Gulfstream International Airlines, Silver Airways has carved out a niche serving smaller markets and island destinations that are underserved by major carriers. The airline is known for its focus on short-haul regional routes, particularly inter-Florida flights connecting cities such as Tampa, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, and Pensacola, as well as international routes to the Bahamas. Silver Airways has undergone fleet transitions over the years, moving toward turboprop aircraft suited to its regional network. Silver Airways is not a member of any major global airline alliance but has maintained codeshare and interline agreements with larger carriers to expand connectivity for its passengers.
