Silver Airways/Seaborne Airlines Saab 340 Caribbean Island Hopper

Silver Airways/Seaborne Airlines Saab 340 Caribbean Island Hopper

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
In this video, well fly from Puerto Rico to St. Croix in the US Virgin Islands on a Saab 340 that belongs to Silver Airways and is operated by Seaborne Airlines. Back in 2018, Silver Airways bought Seaborne Airlines. Today, Seaborne Airlines flights are booked through Silver Airways, but the airplanes are still emblazoned with the Seaborne Airlines logo. Seaborne operates a fleet of seaplanes along with airport-based aircraft. Our trip today would be onboard a twenty-five year-old Saab 340B. Watch this video to experience the San Juan airport, a short but memorable flight onboard Silvers Saab 340 operated by Seaborne, and (perhaps best of all) unmatched views of the Caribbean Sea

Wow Thank you mister Jeb! I have learned from your video that there are still commercial Sea Plane Flights. I am inspired to find out where they can be taken. It might not be as Glamorous as the 1st Pan American Clipper back in the 30s but I am inspired now

Jen its awesome that you gave a safety though, but when evacuation of an aircraft they want you to remove your shoes. Shoes can damage evacuation slides on aircraft. If you put a whole in a slide it will be unusable for people behind you. It only fill once and isnt being continuously filled.

Nice viseo! I think the saabs will be replaced with silver ones or atrs! Im from PR and for a time u were able to fly on ATR but sadly Atr is a no go for the pancemic but hey you got to fly on a soon to probably retired airplane!

Island hopping is nice down there in the Caribbean. Having those great beaches there are so nice. Also, yes, I have always had my gym shoes on when I have flown down there. Also, doing the island hopping in Hawaii as well.

I had to stop the video and take a pause and say. Being a commercial pilot has a lot of rewards. On my way to becoming one! Now, back to the video. Thank you brother. Very educational video. I love to travel as well.

You videos are excellent. So proud to me for your visit to Puerto Rico. I hope you found so beautiful. Your Spanish is very good. More practice a you do it very well. Exito y muchos saludos. Greetings from Bayamon PR.

Boy do I have some stories about that airport. From the dragging benches of seats across the floor at 3am, to closing Seabornes old terminal because it was full of mold, Ive seen just about all of that airport.
reply

I flew the Beech 1900, Saab 340 and got typed on the new ATR for Silver. I hope you get an opportunity to fly on the ATR. Its a really nice plane. Enjoy the rest of your trip! Love your videos!

i was just there leaving my vacation from culebra, we were taking a united 737 from san juan all the way up to newark, then from newark we took a united embraer 170 back to my home airport dtw

Hope you enjoyed the Saab 340B. As a pilot I flew that exact tail number many times at a company named Chicago Express. A very well constructed, reliable and SAFE aircraft!
reply

Not sure if you were able to see any Short360s, but I use to fly them down in the islands with a company called AirCargo Carriers (ACC)
Such a cool and unique aircraft.

Why there is a cop at 0: 38, Jeb brooks? I want more Suzanne aslo. Can you please make a video about flight to Boston logon airport from washington dulles airport? Yes
reply

01: 51 took me a few rewinds to check whether that was a bird or if my eyes were playing tricks on me (thanks for the caption, Jeb, which I missed the first few times)
reply

What a memory for me. The SAAB 340 was the first commercial aircraft I ever flew on. A northwest Air-link Mesaba Saab 340. EAU to MSP. Crazy to see them still flying!
reply

Closed toed shoes should be mandatory, because no one wants to see other peoples crusty feet. Especially when its sticking through the space between the seats.
reply

Just booked a flight on American from RDU-DFW-LAS! Gonna spend some time in Vegas. Then the return flight from LAS-CLT-RDU. Its gonna be great! (All airbus aircraft)
reply

Im from St. Thomas glad to see some high quality Seaborne content. Silver does actually have some of their Saabs on the Caribbean routes along with Seaborne.
reply

Maybe you were thinking Johnny Wishbone? Cause you know he's from the island of St. Croix. psychic extraordinaire. A little Beverly Hills Cop II humor.
reply

Loved this video! First one I have watched with Seaborn and traveling to st criox. Hope you enjoyed your stay! I hope to visit this island someday.
reply

For a flight I booked a while ago, we were about to fly on seaborne, but now we are flying through puerto rico, like in the last one, very weird
reply

But aren't passports soon going to be required on domestic airline flights, including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands?
reply

Next time. Suzanne should put a blindfold and noise canceling headphones on you and only once you land you figure out where you are lol.
reply

It's too bad that Jamaican Airlines went out of business, I would love to see you review one of their flights, if you lived through it.
reply

You are so blessed to have the opportunity to travel as you do, especially with such a wonderful creative director as you have. Enjoy!
reply

Your comment on the mixed TSA Pre is my struggle everytime I fly back The chairs too. Also, your spanish was understandsble
reply

Silver Airways people are JERKS. I am SO glad they are not working at RSW! They treat the disabled like TRASH
reply

Jeb if you get a chance - do I review of Westjet. They are flying internationally now with 787-9s I believe.
reply

That Saab reminds me of the old ATA connection flights i had a million times. IND-EVV 39$ round trip.
reply

Kind of like Hawaii. inter-island planes make short trips daily in a humid, salty environment. Lots of ocean.
reply

I love the Saab 340! I spent half my career working on them. There are very safe, well designed aircraft!
