Anyone want to split taxi to Fajardo- airline lands SJU 7 PM, Sat May 26.
Culebra, Puerto Rico

There's really no way for me to get to Culebra that night, is there?

I've been to Vieques many time but was going to try to experience Culebra this time instead

What should I do? Stay in SJU? Stay in Fajardo? Stay in Ceiba?

My time is so short - 7 pm Sat to 7 am Tuesday - that I wonder if it's even worth trying.

Are there other ways to travel late night or very early morning between the islands?

Two days on Culebra can be quite relaxing if you fly. My suggestion: spend Saturday night near old San Juan and enjoy good food and drink. Then if possible catch the first flight to Culebra on Sunday morning (check Air Flamenco and Vieques Air Link for availability first) and then fly back late on Monday to Isla Grande.

Avoid the taxi rides back and forth to Fajardo as you probably wont get to the island any sooner and the savings on flight costs from Ceiba or taking the ferry will be eaten up by the cab fares. Plus the time in the taxi could be better spent in San Juan.

Good luck.

You can stay at the Best Western in the San Juan airport. It's ~$120/night. You walk to it. you can hang out in san juan that evening. Take the early flight from Isla Grande to Culebra the next morning. Cab fare $20 and takes 20 min. flight is $65 each way. 30 minute flight. have camera handy for nice pics.

I moved my Delta flight, so I'm good. Have a 4:45 PM Vieques Air Link flight on Saturday.

Now my problem is I can't get a flight back to SJU on Monday night.

Dare I risk the 5 and 6 PM ferries to Fajardo on Memorial Day? If I go for the passenger ferry at 5 PM, will they take me on the 6PM cargo ferry if the 5PM is full?

I'll make a separate post asking for suggestions.
