The Nantucket Shuttle is Tradewind Aviation’s Premium Scheduled Service departing from the New York area to Nantucket.
The Shuttle allows regular commuters to Nantucket to effectively share executive aircraft. With the Shuttle, you can avoid the hassles of commercial airline terminals including TSA security and parking.
Tradewind Aviation operates the Cessna Grand Caravan and Pilatus PC-12 which are both turboprop aircraft seating up to eight passengers. The aircraft are equipped with the latest avionics, including collision avoidance system (TCAS), ground proximity warning (GPWS) and radar. All our crews are highly experienced, exceed FAA standards and attend rigorous simulator training. Tradewind Aviation holds an ARG/US Gold Rating and carries a minimum of $30 million of liability insurance on all its aircraft.
Unlike other operators on this route, Tradewind Aviation is certified as a Commuter Air Carrier. This means that we are subject to even more stringent safety regulations and closer FAA scrutiny. Pilots fly fewer hours per day and get more regular rest periods. This translates into enhanced safety and service.
