FAQs - booking Puerto Rico flights

  • Do I need any special travel documents to visit Puerto Rico?

    U.S. citizens do not need visas or passports to visit Puerto Rico, as it is a U.S. territory. A valid government-issued photo ID, such as a driver's license, suffices for entry. Visitors from other countries should check specific entry requirements based on their nationalities before traveling.

  • Is it possible to fly direct from Richmond to Puerto Rico?

    Since the Richmond Airport (RIC) serves only domestic nonstop flights, there are no direct flights into Puerto Rico. However, you will find plenty of one-stop flights with Spirit, American Airlines, Delta, and JetBlue. Some possible cities where you might have a layover are Orlando (MCO), Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Miami (MIA), and Charlotte (CLT).

  • Do I have to pay extra for baggage on my flight from Richmond to Puerto Rico?

    The baggage fees are determined by which airline you’re flying and which ticket type you book. Generally, budget airlines like Spirit and JetBlue charge extra for any bags, both checked and carry-on. It’s a good idea to purchase these ahead of time or bundle them into the fare. In the Main Cabin on American Airlines, you are permitted one carry-on free of charge. To have a checked bag included as well, upgrade your ticket to Main Plus.

  • Can I bring my surfboard on my flight from Richmond to Puerto Rico?

    If you're heading to Puerto Rico's renowned west coast surf spots, feel free to bring your own board on American Airlines. You're allowed one bag or case holding multiple boards, but remember to detach all fins and accessories before packing. If it weighs 50 lbs. or less, it's considered a standard checked bag; heavier bags incur additional fees.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from Richmond to Puerto Rico?

    KAYAK is a travel search engine. That means we look across the web to find the best prices we can find for our users. With over 2 billion flight queries processed yearly, we are able to display a variety of prices and options on flights from Richmond to Puerto Rico.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from Richmond to Puerto Rico?

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Puerto Rico

  • Richmond Airport (RIC) serves as the best starting point for travelers in the Virginia state capital, as well as surrounding cities like Norfolk and Virginia Beach. It offers nonstop service to major domestic destinations and connecting service to points around the world.
  • While several airports in Puerto Rico serve international flights, Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU), located in San Juan, is the best choice. From here you can connect by plane to other locations on the island, such as the smaller island of Vieques (VQS).
  • When flying Spirit Airlines, remember its "Bare Fare" concept, which keeps fares low, but also means any extras will have separate fees attached. If you're looking for added benefits like specific seat selections, luggage check-ins, or priority boarding, explore the airline’s bundled options which could end up saving you money in the end.
  • Certain Spirit Airlines flights require self-transfers, meaning upon reaching the layover city, you'll need to recheck your bag and go through security again. Ensure your layover duration allows ample time for this and your connecting flight. Opting for just a carry-on simplifies this process and reduces potential complications.
  • If you're aiming for eco-friendly travel, consider flying with Delta. It is transitioning to a greener fleet and integrating sustainable aviation fuels. It’s also furthering its efforts with electric ground equipment and the introduction of meals sourced sustainably that are served onboard.

All good except once again bags took an hour at Midway Airport Happens all the time. Ridiculous

Everything went smoothly and we even arrived a little bit early.

Great vacation. Can't wait till next year for another one.

Great flight but super high price. Glad it was a business trip and not personal

On time. Friendly staff. Took to long to pre bord all the specialty groups. Cramped small plane

The seats were comfortable, and the boarding process was pretty smooth.

3 hour delay. Had to change plans and was still delayed.

The staff was very friendly, professional, and courteous. The overall flight was a great experience.

The crew canceled the complementary snack and drink in anticipation of turbulence that never materialized. I was counting on the drink (water) to take the the doses of medication - prescribed for my heart condition - that were due during the flight. Since no snack or meal was served on this flight, I cannot rate the food quality. Otherwise, this flight was excellent.

Departure was delayed more than 1/2 hour while we waited for luggage (only) transfer from another flight/plane. Once approved for takeoff, the flight was excellent.

delta last minute gave me a boarding pass for a different flight with no confirmation that they were changing it

The flight was comfortable and uneventful, which is what I desire

The service from the flight attendants were of supreme quality. They greeted and treated everyone with a wide smile. This is totally absent nowadays. Kudos to them!!!!

Excellent flight and got us around tough weather. Only issue was seat TV did not work and crew tried to reboot.

Very large passenger too space from my own seat. Arm board couldn’t be lowered because of his size. It wads very uncomfortable trip, as the flight was full couldn’t move anywhere having back pain because of the position in which I was the entire flight.

was sitting in the jet bridge for 10 minutes in -20 degree weather waiting for my bag

Outdated equipment in disrepair, wifi inoperable. Broken seats, taped air vents, generally poor condition, the 717 showed its age and lack of upkeep.

My flight out of Baton Rouge to Atlanta was delayed by a half hour. This got us into Atlanta airport 30 minutes late. I ran through the airport to get to my connecting flight. As I approached the boarding gate, I saw the boarding door was still open and a passenger was being checked in. But when I got to the gate, the boarding agent told me they had already given away my seat and there were no empty seats on that flight. So I had to take a later flight. That has never happened to me before. Very frustrating.

Connection through Atlanta was difficult. Mechanical issue on plane caused a two hour delay. New gate was a mile away.

No WiFi. Comfort plus should have alcohol provided, crew only offered water or tea. Who the heck wants tea?

On time on a day with lots of weather cancellations on other flights. Thank you for getting me home during a winter storm!

Don't change gate multiple times make people run across the airport. Announce delays in a timely manner. Have maintenance crew ready. Don't delay and keep passengers on the plane for 3 hrs. on tarmac.

The plane was experiencing problems with the HVAC system, it was very cold in the front of the plane and very hot in the back.

My flight to London from Philadelphia was cancelled due to weather.

The attendants were kind and helpful. A sugar-free drink would have been very welcome.

Pilot navigated severe weather/snow storm with skill. Described his intentions clearly

one crew said "he" didn't serve double alcohol drinks for travelers in exit rows. crew on prior flight did. Is this a AA rule, and the prior crew was being nice? Also, I think we deserve more than a 25% refund for losing first class seats when rescheduling a flight due to weather

It was a little concerning to hear the ground crew arguing with the flight crew over baggage space. Instead of taking them and checking them, they started checking for space in the first class cabin moving items around like the flight crew didn't know what they were doing. I was embarrassed for them.

2 hour delay due to equipment failure. No updates via the app and airport screens (which continued to show a departure time in the past). AA eventually switched planes and the new plane was not catered or cleaned correctly.

I booked an aisle seat and was given a middle. At 6'4" 230lbs, it is not ideal to fly in the middle row for myself and passengers.

Terrible. They canceled our early morning flight after midnight on the day of and had no available flights to rebook my family on for the next 72 hours. Yet they still had other flights that were not cancelled from JFK so it couldn’t be based on the weather. It felt like they canceled the flight based on it not being profitable enough for them. I am not interested in traveling with the again. The absolute worse customer service and lack of accountability.

Horribly rude check in at airport, worst in 25 years of flying. All over a simple issue they could have googled to resolve.

First time flying with JetBlue and never again. I went to the counter to request meet and assist because I'm 74 and my wife is 79. I walk with a cane and my wife is handicapped and has her own wheel chair. I told the agent that my wife and luggage was at the entrance door. The ticketing agent said to me that they don't offer meet and assist. I need to bring them our luggage and then go back and get my wife in order to get my boarding pass. As I went back to get my luggage a Southwest agent along with a TSA agent recognized the situation and came over and took my wife and luggage to the JetBlue ticketing counter alongside the line and told the JetBlue agent to issue to take our luggage as soon as they could.

Flight was fine, price was good but food onboard was abysmal. I was on there for breakfast and lunch and dinner 845am EST to 845pm GMT and all I got was a yoghurt parfait, fruit and a piece of cake. Later snacks included an ice-cream brownie and a pizza twist. I was hungry by the time I landed and the airport amenities were closed. Not happy.

1) No pilot available for 1 hour 2) no room for most passengers careyon in overhead—-> stowed below 3) when we landed we had to wait 45 min. Before docking at gate as gate was not ready

Good. No issues except a slight delay. Crew came in late.

Not a pleasant experience, service was poor. Didn't like it

It was good. I prefer JB over other airlines.I just wish we had headphones for the films, but other than that - good.

The ride share experience in JFK is terrible. After traveling on a flight, then you need to take a subway to the last stop to get an uber or lyft. Unacceptable. Bad job JetBlue for permitting JFK and Port Authority to do this to your passengers.

Checking In on JetBlue site was impossible. It hung up on REAL ID. Even my Global Entry did not help. Luckily, on Kayak site it was a breeze. Entire flight the temperature was COLD! Otherwise the crew was great!

All very good except they didn’t load our walker so haven’t gotten it yet

Flight was cancelled. But kayak thought it was still on time.

For the cost you can't e too critical, but the inablitiy to recline the seat and minimal cushioning in the seats made for a less than comfortable flight. Other than that we had an ealry departure and arrival, boarding was smooth.

The flight was delayed by 2 hours and we had no food or water or chargers

Spirit was on time. They maintained updates and information. The crew was friendly and professional. Because this is a budget friendly airline, they have dispensed with a lot of frills and part of that comes with a price, for example, the seats are not quite as comfortable as others. I am ok with a pay for beverage and snack service as I prefer my own anyway so this was not a concern. I thought overall, having a great flight crew and on time service was definitely worth losing some of the frills from other carriers.

Nothing everything cost money a bottle of water is 5 dollars and there wasn't even an outlet to plug 🔌 in my 📱 phone

You can’t beat Spirit’s prices on tickets, especially with the positive experience that comes with it! I appreciated the timeliness of Spirit airlines. The crew in the airport was very kind and wished you a good flight by name. The crew on the flight was attentive and friendly. Overall, I am very pleased with my experience with Spirit.

This was my best experience with spirit. I flew you guys 4 times and I must say this was the BEST

Horribly late because they had no crew!!! And then jet bridge didn’t work!! Then we arrived at a gate at lax miles away that we had to take a shuttle to a terminal!! I was over 3 hours late to getting the LA! Should have been here at 8:30 and at an appointment at 10:30 and arrived and left lax at 11 am!! Horrible experience!!!

Extra legroom with my upgrade bundle. Clean aircraft, on-time departure, early arrival. Good value for the price.
