Today: La Compagnie Airlines launches its first flights to the Caribbean

The Caribbean is calling! The France-based, all Business Class airline La Compagnie will launch this Sunday its first flight to the Caribbean in partnership with the family-owned travel agency E. Clarke Travel. The new exclusive VIP program and partnership between La compagnie and E. Clarke Travel – called “Travel In Style Journeys” – offers discerning travelers unique access to the most prestigious Caribbean islands.

Starting this Sunday through April 14, 2024, La Compagnie will provide clients of E. Clarke Travel with select roundtrip service from Newark Liberty International Airport to St. Maarten Princess Juliana International Airport as part of their Travel In Style Journeys VIP program. The nonstop flights will operate weekly, Sunday to Sunday, departing Newark (EWR) in the morning and returning from St. Maarten (SXM) in the afternoon. The flights will resume again in November, just in time for the Caribbean’s busy winter season.

With the “Travel In Style Journeys” program, travelers can pack their bags for 7-night stays and choose from a selection of hand-picked luxury hotels and villas in St. Maarten, Anguilla, and Saint Barth, which rank among the most luxurious properties in the region. I previously reviewed the following 5-star hotels on these islands:

“Travel in Style Journeys” will attend to all the trip details from booking Business Class flights with La Compagnie, hassle-free inter-island transfers and dedicated luggage handling, to coordinating upscale accommodations with private concierge service throughout the journey including exclusive amenities and more to ensure an extraordinary, tailor-made experience for all guests.

“These new flights to St. Maarten are an exciting development for La Compagnie as they mark our official entry into the Caribbean market,” said La Compagnie CEO, Christian Vernet. “With leisure travel expected to remain strong, we’re thrilled to partner with Travel in Style Journeys to offer an effortless path to some of the destination’s most sought-after islands.” “We, at E. Clarke Travel, are always looking for ways to better serve our clients,” said E. Clarke Travel CEO, Wahid Essafi. “With Travel In Style Journeys and La Compagnie, we are creating a corridor of comfort and trust to bring our existing clients as well as new clients from New York to Sint Maarten and beyond.”

As with all La Compagnie flights, passengers will be welcomed with lounge and priority access for a seamless pre-flight experience. Onboard the modern and efficient A321neo, guests will enjoy a more comfortable trip thanks to the 76 full flat-beds, state-of-the- art entertainment, free Wi-Fi, refreshing amenity kits, seasonally curated menus by Michelin-starred chefs, plus a selective list of organic wines and champagne.
