New England Airlines
Self-handled: certificated commuter air carrier (since 1970) based at Westerly. KWST has only two on-field FBOs (FlightLevel, Dooney) and no dedicated third-party ground-handling company, so the carrier's own staff perform check-in, baggage, and ramp handling for its year-round scheduled Britten-Norman Islander/Piper service to Block Island State Airport. · Daily, year-round

Fly the Whale
US-certificated scheduled Part 135 air carrier (Cessna Caravans) operating weekday multi-daily round trips between Westerly and Block Island; paused after mid-November for winter, resuming in spring. The draft's phone number (•••) is Fly the Whale's US Virgin Islands-specific reservations line, not its general number; corrected here to the carrier's primary toll-free line. Station ground/check-in handling arrangement at KWST remains unconfirmed; likely self-handled given no third-party ground handler is based at the field, but this is not independently documented. · Seasonal, spring-mid November; weekday multi-daily round trips
