Air Seychelles (HM, Mahé) says it will convert its current charter service to Bird Island to a scheduled service after it reached an agreement with the resort.
Lying roughly 100km north of Mahé, Bird Island is a small coral island known for its birdlife, the highlight of which is a colony of more than a million sooty terns that nest there every year, along with many other seabirds including frigates and wedge-tailed shearwaters.
Daily DHC-6-400 flights from Mahé to Bird Island launched on August 1 and will operate 340 days a year.
Air Seychelles also offers local scheduled flights to Praslin Island.
