We flew VAL. I was a bit nervous about the small plane. Heck, I'm nervous about the big plane. I'm happy to say I was very pleasantly surprised. The flight from San Juan to Culebra was like floating on a cloud. I'm not exaggerating. It was smooothth. Like a good aged dark rum. Of which a couple shots before the flight would be enjoyable. I didn't even realize we were off the ground at first. Well, that's because I had my eyes closed! When I opened them we were over San Juan and the view was spectacular. I sat on the right side, if you want an ocean view sit on the left side, but the right side is better. So we flew along the coast past Isla Verde, past Luquillo, and past Fajardo. Soon we were approaching Culebra. I knew what it looked like because I had been studying the map and dreaming about this moment for only about a year and a half! Flying over Flamenco beach was awesome and the landing was perfect. We absolutely love flying to Culebra. We took the ferry back to Fajardo, which was also really nice and smooth, because we were staying in Puerto Rico for a while. Next time we are going to fly AF just for comparison purposes and to support local business. It was very safe and exciting in a good way and fast.
