Flights operate aboard Tradewind's Pilatus PC-12 aircraft and are staffed by two pilots for enhanced safety. The approximately 30-minute journey includes complimentary snacks and refreshments, including beer and wine. Travelers flying to Nantucket or Martha's Vineyard will soon be able to enjoy a new dedicated lounge at Hanscom Field, and a private lounge at Nantucket Airport. All flights are carbon neutral at no additional cost through Tradewind's partnership with 4Air, an independent provider of aviation sustainability solutions.
