Coming from North America
Via
Puerto Rico
From North America, the most common way to fly down here is through San Juan in Puerto Rico.
American Airlines have flights from most cities daily. They have a modern terminal in Puerto Rico and offer connecting flights through American Eagle
to our airport which is located on Beef Island in the British
Virgin Islands. Beef Island is connected to Tortola, the
main island, by a bridge.
If you are unable to connect
to the British Virgin Islands with American Eagle then we suggest trying
LIAT,
Cape Air or Air Sunshine
Alternatively, if you would like a convenient VIP service you might like to try
Fly BVI. Based at the BVI's Beef Island airport they offer air-charter pickups in one
of their small fleet of light aircraft. They are comparably priced for groups of over four passengers and offer the convenience of working to your schedule.
The last couple of years have seen other airlines flying into Puerto Rico, often with more attractive fares. We definitely recommend checking to see if any of
those airlines routes are close to your point of departure.
Via
St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands
Some airlines offer a direct flight to St. Thomas.
Motor yacht La Buscadora can be waiting for you at American Yacht Harbor in Red Hook and transfer you over to Tortola for an extra fee of $400 each way. A quicker way, and comparably priced, is by water taxi. Please contact us for more information.
Alternatively a taxi from the airport will take you to the ferry dock in downtown Charlotte Amalie and you can take the ferry across to Tortola, BVI. Reservations are not necessary. Ferries run four or five times daily and the cost is $44 round trip.
For
your convenience, we have provided a short list of
