Dutch Antilles Express will begin non-stop service between Orlando International Airport (MCO) and Curaçao International Airport (CUR) starting April 15. The new route is scheduled for three weekly round trips, operating on Mondays, Fridays and Sundays. This expansion complements the carrier’s existing round-trip service between Miami (MIA) and Curaçao.
Dutch Antilles Express continues to develop its Caribbean and northern South American network. In addition to the Orlando and Miami links to Curaçao, the airline serves several other destinations across the region, including Aruba (AUA), Medellín, Colombia (MDE), Port-au-Prince, Haiti (PAP), Paramaribo, Suriname (PBM), and Caracas, Venezuela (CCS). These routes provide improved connectivity for both leisure travelers and business passengers seeking convenient connections within the Caribbean basin and to parts of northern South America.
The introduction of the Orlando–Curaçao nonstop flight targets strong demand from Florida-based travelers looking for direct access to Curaçao’s beaches, resorts and cultural attractions, as well as from Curaçao residents and visitors seeking straightforward travel to central Florida. Orlando’s status as a major leisure and transit hub, combined with Curaçao’s growing appeal as a destination for sun-and-sea vacations, makes the new service a strategic addition to the carrier’s schedule.
Travelers can expect a three-times-weekly schedule that is likely to appeal to those planning short breaks or extended stays alike, offering convenient mid-week and weekend departure options. By adding Orlando to its network, Dutch Antilles Express increases options for seamless connections from Florida to its other Caribbean and South American destinations, improving travel flexibility for passengers originating from or transiting through Orlando and Miami.
Passengers should confirm flight times and availability directly with the airline or through approved booking channels before planning travel, since schedules and frequencies are subject to change. As with any new route launch, travelers may find introductory fares and promotional offers; it is advisable to review ticket terms, baggage allowances and any entry requirements for Curaçao and the United States prior to booking.
Overall, the new Orlando–Curaçao service reflects Dutch Antilles Express’s continued focus on strengthening regional connectivity. By linking two important travel markets with a non-stop option, the airline aims to make travel across the Caribbean and adjacent parts of South America more convenient and efficient for both leisure visitors and local travelers.
