Can You Pay Later on Air Antilles?

Air Antilles stopped flying in 2026; pay later on other airlines

No, because Air Antilles was ordered into judicial liquidation on 27 April 2026, after its air operator certificate was suspended on 8 December 2025, so there are no Air Antilles flights to book. Pay later on Laters.com works with other airlines instead: search your route, pick a plan inside the checkout, and the e-ticket arrives straight away once payment is approved.

Paying later is a payment method at the Laters.com checkout, not something Air Antilles has to switch on, which is why it works on every route we ticket. Search the route, choose a provider, pick a plan, and the e-ticket arrives once payment is approved. Plans shown depend on the country you book from, not the airline, and checkout lists only plans your fare qualifies for, so nothing needs working out in advance.

An instalment plan leaves the fare alone, and the baggage allowance, and the seat, and what the fare class earns in GREEN'Smiles, Air Antilles's loyalty programme. You fly as Air Antilles's own passenger on its own fare rules; only the paying is spread. Interest-free plans run a soft eligibility check that does not affect a credit score, interest-bearing monthly financing runs a full credit check, and approval is never guaranteed on either. Borrow only what you can repay.

Illustrative only. The figures above are computed from the fare you set: plain division for the interest-free plans, and each plan's own illustrative rate over its stated term for monthly financing. They are not an offer, a quote, or a prediction of what you will be given. Laters.com is not the lender and takes no part in the decision: which plans appear, the instalment amounts, any interest and fees, and whether you are eligible at all are determined by the provider alone, and depend on a credit or eligibility assessment, your country and your basket. The only way to see your real plans is to choose a provider at checkout, at which point that provider, not Laters.com, approves or declines the purchase. All plans, rates, fees and terms are estimates only and subject to approval and to change.

Laters.com vs booking direct

Air Antilles Has Been Liquidated — Compare Other Airlines Instead

Booking direct with the airline suits a straight card payment, but Air Antilles was ordered into liquidation on 27 April 2026, so no Air Antilles ticket can be bought today, direct or otherwise. On any airline booked here, it is the same ticket, on that airline's own fare rules, with the same baggage allowance, seat selection and loyalty earning. Pay-later plans are credit, so borrow only what you can repay.

The Laters.com Airline Quality Score - Air Antilles

What is the Laters.com Airline Quality Score?

Our editorial rating, out of 10, for what an airline is actually like to fly once you have booked it.

  1. 1Reliability & operations
  2. 2Comfort & experience
  3. 3Value & network
  4. 4Professional airline rating

Every airline we ticket is scored on the same 4 measures, so you can compare them like for like before you book. See the full methodology See all airline scores →

Scored by the Laters.com editorial team from the airline’s own published specifications and named third-party measurements. No airline pays to be rated, no placement is sold, and this page contains no affiliate links.

Air Antilles scores 2.3 out of 10: the plain average of the measures below, rounded to one decimal. Each measure is an editorial assessment of the published facts.

What to watch

  • Operations ceased; liquidation ordered 27 April 2026.
  • BEST fares include no bag; €30 online, €45 at check-in.
  • No on-time figure, star rating or awards confirmed.
  • Smiles valid 1 year; cancelled after 12 months inactive.

4 measures, scored the same way for every airline we ticket.

Reliability & operations1/10

Air Antilles has no punctuality figure on record, and its air operator certificate was suspended by the DSAC on 8 December 2025. The Commercial Court of Pointe-à-Pitre ordered liquidation on 27 April 2026. For a traveller, that means no flights to rely on, and liquidation is what holds this score down.

Sources: Air Antilles homepage (flight-suspension notice)

Comfort & experience3/10

No seat pitch, cabin names or onboard facts were confirmed, which is what holds this score low. The published cabin figures are a 5 kg carry-on limit, a 55 x 35 x 25 cm bag plus one accessory, and 72 seats on each ATR 72.

Sources: Air Antilles baggage allowances and charges

Professional airline rating2/10

No star rating, award or named rating body is on record for Air Antilles, so there is no independent score to lean on. CAPA records operations as ceased on 9 December 2025. The missing star rating is what holds this score low.

How the score is built

  • 4 measures, each scored out of 10
  • The headline is the plain average of those measures, computed in the open
  • Each measure is an editorial assessment based on the published facts and sources in the breakdown
  • No airline pays to be rated, and no placement is sold

What we deliberately left out

  1. Safety. It is not a marketing metric and we will not rank carriers on it.
  2. Cancellation rate and fleet age. Omitted rather than estimated, until a sourced field exists for every airline.
  3. Any sub-metric we cannot attribute. An unsourced measure is dropped, not guessed.
  4. Blended third-party scores that mix in inputs we have already rejected elsewhere on this page.

The full method, measure by measure, is on how we score airlines.

Can I book Air Antilles flights on Laters and pay later?

Laters lists four pay-later providers for Air Antilles flights at checkout, in this order: Affirm Stripe, AFTEE, Afterpay and Akulaku. Air Antilles has stopped flying, though. Its own website says its operating authorisations are suspended and that commercial and flight operations have stopped, so confirm a flight is actually offered in your search before choosing a plan.

Is Air Antilles still operating?

No operations are confirmed. The Antilles-Guyane branch of the DSAC suspended its air operator certificate on 8 December 2025, and the Commercial Court of Pointe-à-Pitre ordered its liquidation on 27 April 2026. Whether any successor has restarted the Air Antilles brand is not confirmed.

Who is eligible for pay later on an Air Antilles booking?

Eligibility is set by the provider, not by Air Antilles. At checkout Laters shows Affirm Stripe, AFTEE, Afterpay and Akulaku for Air Antilles flights, and each one decides whether to approve you. Paying later is credit, so only apply if you are sure you can meet every instalment.

Is there a credit check when I pay for Air Antilles later?

The provider you pick (Affirm Stripe, AFTEE, Afterpay or Akulaku) decides what checks it runs, and it shows its terms before you accept. Air Antilles' own site offered a separate card option, 3x 4x SystemPay, for purchases of €100 to €6,000. That is an airline arrangement, not the approval process of a Laters provider.

What if Air Antilles cancels my flight? Do I still owe instalments?

Air Antilles was placed in liquidation on 27 April 2026, and Laters cannot confirm whether or when refunds on unflown tickets will be paid. Your instalment plan is a separate agreement with the provider. Tell the provider about the cancellation and ask what happens to the remaining payments.

What is the carry-on allowance on Air Antilles?

Air Antilles allowed 1 carry-on bag up to 55 x 35 x 25 cm plus 1 accessory such as a handbag or laptop. The two items together could weigh at most 5 kg on BEST fares, or up to 12 kg on COOL and FLEX fares.

Which Air Antilles fares include a checked bag?

FLEX fares included 1 checked bag of 23 kg, and BEST fares included none. On BEST, a 23 kg bag cost €30 per sector when bought online with the ticket, or €45 at check-in. Each bag could measure at most 158 cm (height + length + width).

What did extra baggage cost on Air Antilles?

A second 23 kg bag cost €45 per sector, and excess weight was €5 per kg up to 32 kg per bag. An oversize bag over 158 cm, a surfboard, bicycle, golf bag, diving kit or musical instrument in the hold was €45 each. Add these to the fare total before choosing an instalment plan.

When did check-in close on Air Antilles flights?

Airport check-in closed at most 30 minutes before departure, and boarding closed 20 minutes before departure on all flights. The conditions of carriage say online check-in ran from booking until 60 minutes before departure on regional flights. Online check-in was free.

How do I choose an instalment plan for a bigger Air Antilles fare?

Add any bags, a second 23 kg bag at €45 per sector for example, to the fare, then compare the instalment size with what you can repay each period. Laters shows the limits and schedules for Affirm Stripe, AFTEE, Afterpay and Akulaku at checkout. For reference, Air Antilles' own site split purchases of €100 to €6,000 into 3 or 4 card payments. Borrow only what you need.

Is pay later for Air Antilles available in my country?

Availability depends on your country and on each provider, and Laters shows the providers open to you at checkout. Air Antilles last listed four territories: Guadeloupe, Martinique, Saint-Martin and Saint-Barthélemy, with Pointe-à-Pitre (PTP) as its base. Where you live, not where the flight goes, decides which providers appear.

Can I bring a pet or assistance animal on Air Antilles, and what did it cost?

Air Antilles carried dogs, cats and fighting cocks. A pet in the cabin (under 6 kg with its bag) cost €25 and a pet in the hold (over 20 kg, up to 32 kg) cost €65, while assistance animals were free. Special assistance had to be requested at booking and at least 48 hours before departure.

Which airlines fly the same Pointe-à-Pitre routes as Air Antilles?

Air Caraïbes (TX) sells flights from Pointe-à-Pitre to Fort-de-France and to Saint-Martin (Grand Case), and St Barth Commuter (PV) runs scheduled Pointe-à-Pitre to St Barthélemy flights. Laters compares prices from multiple providers in one search, so you can look at these routes while Air Antilles is not operating.

What is Air Antilles' current situation?

As of October 2026, no Air Antilles flights are confirmed operating. The Commercial Court of Pointe-a-Pitre ordered the airline into judicial liquidation on 27 April 2026, after the DGAC's Antilles-Guyane branch had already suspended its air operator certificate on 8 December 2025 and rejected the takeover bids put to it. No successor has been confirmed as restarting services under the Air Antilles name.

Who took over Air Antilles?

The Collectivite de Saint-Martin and the Edeis Group took over Air Antilles in 2024, as a local mixed-economy company with a 60:40 ownership split, after the airline's parent group CAIRE collapsed in 2023. It regained its air operator certificate in June 2024 and resumed limited flights that summer, but the revival did not hold: the carrier lost its certificate again in December 2025 and was ordered into judicial liquidation in April 2026.

Which airline should I use for the French Antilles?

It depends on the route. Air Caraibes covers the Pointe-a-Pitre-Fort-de-France and Pointe-a-Pitre-Saint-Martin (Grand Case) routes Air Antilles used to fly; St Barth Commuter and Winair serve the St Barthelemy hops; and Air France (SkyTeam) connects the French Antilles more broadly. No single carrier has taken over the whole Air Antilles network.

What is the best airline for flights to Guadeloupe?

For the smaller-island routes Air Antilles used to fly from its Pointe-a-Pitre (PTP) base, St Barth Commuter runs scheduled flights between Pointe-a-Pitre and St Barthelemy, and Winair connects Sint Maarten to St Barthelemy. Neither is a direct Air Antilles replacement; check each airline's own site for current routes and fares.

What is the best airline for flights to Martinique?

Air Caraibes flies the same Pointe-a-Pitre-Fort-de-France route Air Antilles used to serve, and also covers Pointe-a-Pitre-Saint-Martin (Grand Case). Air France, a SkyTeam member, serves the French Antilles as well, typically via longer-haul connections rather than the short regional hop Air Antilles flew.

Which new airline now serves Martinique?

Following Air Antilles' liquidation, GateChecked reported that Air Caraibes, Liat and Sunrise Airways are the carriers now carrying the regional traffic out of Guadeloupe and Martinique that Air Antilles used to fly. No single airline has been confirmed as a direct one-for-one replacement on every route.

What is the cheapest airline to Guadeloupe?

No independently verified fare comparison exists for these regional Guadeloupe routes, so Laters.com does not state a cheapest option here. Air Caraibes, St Barth Commuter and Winair all serve parts of the network Air Antilles used to cover; compare live fares directly with each airline before booking.

Who is Air Antilles?

Air Antilles is a French regional airline based in Guadeloupe, founded in 2002 as Air Antilles Express. Its hub is Pointe-à-Pitre (PTP), and its last published network linked Guadeloupe, Martinique, Saint-Martin and Saint-Barthélemy. No alliance, rating or award is confirmed for it, so none is claimed here.

Check the airline's status before you book. Its website says its operating authorisations are suspended until further notice and that flight operations have stopped. The Commercial Court of Pointe-à-Pitre ordered its liquidation in April 2026. Whether any successor has restarted the flights is not confirmed.

When it flew, baggage depended on the fare: FLEX fares include a checked bag and BEST fares do not. Its loyalty programme, GREEN'Smiles, starts at Agate and tops out at Club Émeraude, which takes fifty thousand Smiles to reach. Smiles and status last one year.

Paying later changes little. The fare is the same as paying by card, the baggage allowance is the one your fare carries, loyalty earning is what your fare class earns, and the ticket is issued on Air Antilles's own rules. You are still its passenger and you spread the cost. It does not remove the risk in the airline's situation.

Paying later is credit. A missed instalment has consequences with the provider, and a late fee may apply. Only split a fare you are sure you can repay.

Fleet and on-time performance

Air Antilles ran a small mixed fleet of regional aircraft, built mostly around ATR types, with no long-haul flying confirmed. It was not a single-type operator. The last fleet listed on its site named the ATR 72, the ATR 42 and the DHC-6 Twin Otter. They served Pointe-à-Pitre, Fort-de-France, Saint-Martin Grand Case and Saint-Barthélemy, across the four territories of its last network. These are the types last listed, not a current fleet: the airline no longer operates any aircraft, and deliveries and retirements change fleets, so no counts are given. Punctuality is not confirmed and is left out. Cancellation rate and fleet age are also left out rather than estimated, since neither has a confirmed figure yet.
