OPTION 1 - Fly
to Tortola BVI: - The
airport for Tortola is called "Beef Island" - code "EIS"
- You
must change planes in San Juan, Puerto Rico
-
American has the most flights in/out of EIS.
- Need
a hotel on Tortola?
- Taxi
time between the airport and yacht at Road Town is about 20 minutes.
OPTION
2 - Fly
to St. Thomas USVI with
direct jet service: -
Airport
code "STT" -
If
you change planes, you try to avoid Miami due to weather delays. If you change
planes flying American, try for
Dallas (a major hub with more planes in case yours has a problem). -
Then
ferry to the BVI: - Arriving
STT by 3PM with only carry-on luggage, you can take a 7 minute cab to the large,
fast catamaran ferry. Departs 4PM Charlotte Amalie, arrives 4:50PM in Road
Town, Tortola. Relax out on the top deck!
- If
you arrive after 3:30PM, spend the night on St. Thomas. The Best
Western Emerald Beach is 2 minutes from the STT airport. There are no night
flights, so it is quiet. Right on a beach with flat calm water. The next morning,
it's about 5 minutes to the Charlotte Amalie ferry terminal.
- We
do not suggest the other older, slower ferries.
