			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico, Feb. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ &#8212; Seaborne Airlines and the Puerto Rico Infrastructure Financing Authority (PRIFA) have entered into an agreement to install Seaborne&#8217; s corporate logo on the 23<sup>rd</sup> floor of the exterior frontal façade of the World Plaza Building in Hato Rey. Seaborne&#8217; s headquarter offices are located in the World Plaza, one of the tallest and most emblematic commercial buildings in the business zone. The government of Puerto Rico made a strategic investment in Seaborne, closing in early 2014. Since that time, Seaborne and Puerto Rico have worked together to allow Seaborne to &#8217;spread its wings&#8217; to 17 airports throughout the Caribbean. Seaborne operates as a codeshare partner to American Airlines, JetBlue Airways and Air Europa with interline connecting agreements with Delta Airlines, United Airlines and many other carriers.</p>
<p><a href="https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/330461/seaborneeng.jpg?p=distribution&amp;token=br5thZC+thT6sglYug5/0YJPYLDM2m+jsWGdJkAWxdpR4rW942BW6lBG7xPHHqsa2ROx54rqtpT5g6yPjTVzMANQq7eOza+ieJQToVZVlgIN" target="_blank">https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/330461/seaborneeng.jpg?p=distribution&amp;token=br5thZC+thT6sglYug5/0YJPYLDM2m+jsWGdJkAWxdpR4rW942BW6lBG7xPHHqsa2ROx54rqtpT5g6yPjTVzMANQq7eOza+ieJQToVZVlgIN</a><br />
Constructed in 1972, the architectural design of the World Plaza remains one of the most striking views in the skyline of The Golden Mile. It also holds an important place in the business history of Puerto Rico, having shared another legendary name, Banco de Ponce, exactly where Seaborne will proudly display its brand.</p>
<p>Very soon, Seaborne&#8217;s brand will rise up in the busy Golden Mile District. Seaborne Airlines, the largest regional operator at the Caribbean&#8217;s largest connecting hub at San Juan&#8217;s Luis Munoz Marin International Airport has exemplified itself with high standards of customer service, operating all flights from San Juan with two pilots and a flight attendant on the comfortable 34-seat Saab 340 aircraft.</p>
<p>&#8220;We saw the potential of the deal with Seaborne for Puerto Rico, and Seaborne saw the big opportunities that Puerto Rico has to offer as a business destination. It is another example of how we are reenergizing our anchor industries while fostering a services, exportation and knowledge oriented economy&#8221; said Alberto Bacó Bagué, Secretary of Economic Development for Puerto Rico. &#8220;Now everyone will be able to see that Seaborne&#8217;s headquarters are here in Puerto Rico, that they believe in us and that they are part of Puerto Rico&#8217;s economic transformation&#8221;, said Bacó.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are pleased of our joint efforts with Seaborne Airlines to make possible their operations in Puerto Rico, choosing the World Plaza as its headquarters. The property, owned by PRIFA, provides the airline a strategic location in Puerto Rico&#8217;s Golden Mile to run its business as one of the largest airlines of the Caribbean. It also secures the airline&#8217;s growth as part of Puerto Rico&#8217;s aerospace ecosystem&#8221;, said Grace Santana, executive director of PRIFA.</p>
<p>Seaborne, a Part 121 US Flag Carrier, is the only commercial airline operating with the Puerto Rican flag on its fuselage. &#8220;No one flies the flag higher,&#8221; said Gary D. Foss, CEO and President of Seaborne. &#8220;This is just another step forward as we continue to build upon the success Seaborne is experiencing in Puerto Rico and throughout the Caribbean&#8221;, added Foss.</p>
<p>&#8220;We would like to extend a special thanks to Governor Alejandro Garcia Padilla, Grace M. Santana, Chief of Staff to the Governor as well as PRIFA Executive Director and Cesar R. Perez, PRIFA Deputy Director, for their support to Seaborne Airlines in this project. We would be remiss to not thank Ingrid R. Rivera Rocafort, Executive Director of The Tourism Company of Puerto Rico and Mr. Joey Cancel Planas, President of the Economic Development Bank of Puerto Rico and their staffs. Without their support and the support of the people of Puerto Rico, Seaborne would not be where it is today&#8221;, said Foss.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Seaborne Airlines launched service to Antigua and Barbuda on Sunday December 13</em></p>
<p>ST. JOHN&#8217;S, Antigua, Dec. 14, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ &#8212; Plans made by Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Officials to welcome more flights from more airlines and tour operators around the world, upon completion of one of the largest and most modern airports in the Eastern Caribbean have rapidly taken off.</p>
<p>The Antigua and Barbuda Minister of Tourism, the Hon. Asot Michael, and Tourism Officials, welcomed a fourth airline into the destination, just three months after the opening of the new terminal at the V.C. Bird International Airport.</p>
<p>Seaborne Airlines launched its non-stop service between their hub in San Juan&#8217;s Luis Munoz Marin International Airport and Antigua today with a 34 seat Saab 340 aircraft. The inaugural flight departed San Juan at 12:45 pm, and arrived into Antigua at 2:20 pm.</p>
<p>Seaborne Airline Officials, Mr. Hector Montanez &#8211; Director of Business Development &amp; Marketing, Mr. Fernando Vazquez &#8211; Director of Airports, and Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Officials, Mrs. Paula Frederick-Hunte &#8211; Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Tourism, Investment, Economic Development &amp; Energy, and Ms. Shirlene Nibbs &#8211; Tourism Consultant for the Tourism Ministry were onboard the flight.</p>
<p>In welcoming the new carrier, Minister of Tourism, the Hon. Asot Michael called Seaborne Airlines, &#8220;the largest regional operator in the Caribbean.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The entrance of Seaborne, provides passengers with one additional option for travelling to Antigua and Barbuda, quicker and more conveniently.</p>
<p>&#8220;As a regional hub, the more modern V.C. Bird International Airport, was extremely appealing and advantageous to Seaborne as they seek to expand their services throughout the wider Caribbean.&#8221;</p>
<p>Commenting on the inaugurals held to date, the Minister said, &#8220;Our mandate is to grow airlift and to enhance our existing strategic positioning.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;JetBlue&#8217;s launch into Antigua and Barbuda earlier in December, and today&#8217;s arrival of Seaborne, is especially significant, due to the codeshare agreement signed between the two airlines in October. What this codeshare means to the everyday traveler is that they will be able to travel from JetBlue serviced territories in the United States, to Antigua seamlessly, with one ticket, one check-in and reliable baggage transfer.&#8221;</p>
<p>Seaborne&#8217;s partnership with JetBlue Airways, as well as Air Europa, American Airlines, Delta Airlines, and United Airlines, means that, the airline can provide connections for passengers from thirty-three other destinations in the Americas as well as in Europe, into Antigua and Barbuda.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are excited to introduce Antigua as the 17<sup>th</sup> airport served by Seaborne Airlines; the fastest growing airline in the Caribbean,&#8221; said Seaborne CEO and President Gary Foss.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am confident that our customers throughout the region will benefit from Seaborne&#8217;s unmatched customer service commitment, low fares and connectivity to our airline partners.&#8221;</p>
<p>Flights from Antigua to San Juan depart at 3:05 pm and arrive at 4:40 pm.</p>
<p>V.C. Bird International Airport&#8217;s growing portfolio of passenger airlines maintains Antigua and Barbuda&#8217;s position as a major hub in the Eastern Caribbean.</p>
<p><strong>About Seaborne Airlines </strong></p>
<p>Seaborne Airlines has been operating in the Caribbean for over 23 years, carrying approximately 3 million customers safely.

<p><strong>About Antigua &amp; Barbuda:</strong></p>
<p>Antigua (pronounced An-tee&#8217;ga) and Barbuda (Bar-byew&#8217; da) is located in the heart of the Caribbean Sea. The largest of the Leeward Islands, Antigua &amp; Barbuda comprises 108-square miles. The 365 white and pink sand beaches, one for every day of the year, are just the beginning of the treasures that await visitors. Antigua&#8217;s rich history and spectacular topography provide a variety of popular sightseeing opportunities. Nelson&#8217;s Dockyard, the only remaining example of a Georgian fort commissioned by the British in 1755, is perhaps the most renowned landmark. Betty&#8217;s Hope, built in 1674, is the site of one of the first full-scale sugar plantations on Antigua, and offers a chance to step back into time by visiting the restored mills. Another unique attraction is Devil&#8217;s Bridge, located at the eastern tip of the island in Indian Town National Park, where Atlantic breakers have carved out a natural limestone arch. Antigua boasts a varied tourism calendar including events such as the World Class Antigua Sailing Week, Classic Yacht Regatta, Antigua Sports Fishing and also the annual Carnival; known as the Caribbean&#8217;s Greatest Summer Festival. Island accommodation ranges from luxury resorts and all-inclusive hotels to smaller more intimate boutique guesthouses and cottages.

Our wish is that our continued partnership will reap rewards not just on the field but also in uplifting the confidence of our young people and helping them become the leaders of tomorrow.&#8221;</p>
