At launch, the airline's Embraer 175s had 88 seats in a single-class configuration, but only sold 44 on each flight, affording customers the benefit of additional space. In October 2023, the airline announced that its aircraft will be reconfigured with dual-class cabin.[9]
Services
BermudAir aircraft offer complimentary onboard wi-fi for all passengers. Additionally, passengers receive at least one complimentary checked bag regardless of fare class. Complimentary beverages, snacks, and light meals are served onboard and are curated from local partners based in Bermuda.[8]
