As per November 2006 the airline company Martinair will start their commercial flights, twice a week, between Paramaribo and Amsterdam. The first special VIP-flight will be on Sunday, October 29, 2006. The flight on Sundays will be non-stop while the flights on Tuesdays have a stopover on the Caribbean Island Tobago. With this new player on the market Martinair meets to demand to provide more capacity for a reasonable price. According to the spokesman of Martinair, Erik van Doeselaar, flights can be booked via the website www.martinair.nl  or travel agents. Passengers to and from Suriname will now have more options. Besides sales through internet and travel agents, a large part of the capacity will be sold to tour operators who help promote Suriname as a holiday destination.
