Air Service from SJU to Culebra
Culebra, Puerto Rico

My wide and I are planning a trip to Culebra in June. Our flight arrives at 2:00PM on the 7th. We would like to catch a plane there but I can't find information on ergular scheduled air service. Is all of the air service on-demand or is there someone who offers scheduled service? Coming back our departure is after 4:00PM.

What should I do? Take the taxi/ferry instead?

Thanks.

Joel

I understand you want to fly from SJU to Culebra.
Recently someone posted in this forum that you will find at least two small airlines who do fly from there.
Else, there is a 15/20 minute drive to Ribbas Dominicci airport from SJU,
There you will find flights to either island.
If you decide to take a taxi to Fajardo, the cost is around 60/80 dollars, and takes one hour average.
If taxi is your choice, I beleive there is a ferry close to 530pm, the rregular schedule works at 0930, 130pm, and 530pm.
It is said that a fast catamaran named ATHENA, on pier 2 or 3, is making or will be transporting people to either island for nearly 90.00 per person round trip.
THe airlines are Flamenco Airways, Isla Nena, Vieques Air link, there may others.
Nice stay, and enjoy.

We flew into SJU on USAir in early Feb. and it was only a short walk to the Isla Nena counter from USAir although the counter was abandoned since the agent was at lunch. It is a small operation. We had a three hour layover so there was plenty of time.

Leaving from the same area for Vieques & Culebra were Cape Air, Vieques Air Link, Air Sunshine as well as Isla Nena.

Isla Nena's flight was scheduled and left on time. If you visit the websites of these small carriers I think you'll find that there are plenty of scheduled flights. Pack light and be prepared to disclose your weight ;>)

Take a taxi to the 'little' airport- Isla Grande (15 min/$12 taxi) We flew Vieques Air Link in January- $90 round trip per person. Look under transport/getting there on this site for phone numbers .
