Bahamas Airlines
Bahamas Air, the National Flag Carrier of the Bahamas came about as a result of the discontinuation of service to the Bahamas by British Airways in 1970 and Pan American Airlines in 1973 due to the fuel crisis.
The Bahamas relied very heavily on tourism, so Bahamas Air was perceived to be part of the solution to the air transport problem, and as such was slated to provide essential transportation infrastructure and some insurance against the total disruption of the tourism industry.
