    Before booking your flight to Aruba, you should be aware of some high quality events like the Aruba International Film Festival, which occurs each year in June, and the Dande Music Festival during the last week of December. However, the granddaddy of them all is Aruba Carnival, a four-week annual event that commences in January.

  • Is there a place to exchange cash at Oranjestad Airport?

    Yes, there is. There are several ATMs operated by RBC Royal Bank, CMB Bank and a branch of CMB Bank on the Ground Floor of the terminal building, but you should also know that US dollars are generally accepted in Aruba. Therefore, you may only want to have some florins on hand if necessary.

  • Are there any good beaches near Oranjestad Airport?

    Yes, there are. In Aruba, good beaches are scattered around the island, however there is a good quantity of them to be found along its western coast, north of Oranjestad Airport, including Manchebo Beach, Eagle Beach, Palm Beach and Araschi Beach.

  • Does the airport in Aruba offer facilities for business passengers?

    Are you traveling to Aruba on business and looking for a place to get a head start on your tasks? Although AUA lacks a designated business center, the International VIP Lounge should suffice. It has multiple locations in the airline hub, at Gates 2 and 8 of the Main Terminal. Guests can enjoy an array of comfy chairs and couches, snacks, and drinks.

  • What is there to do while at Queen Beatrix International Airport?

    Those looking to win a jackpot can do so at AUA, which features slot machines close to Continental Gate 4 and the luggage room. If gambling isn't your thing and you have already met your shopping cravings, take a stroll through Queen Beatrix International Airport's sculpture garden. The sculpture garden, housed after the U.S. check-in before security on the first level, has a number of stunning sculptures intended to appease any art-deprived vacationers out there. It is also a good place to unwind and snack before passing through security.

  • What are the transfer options from AUA to the city centre?

    You have just touched down in Oranjestad's AUA from a flight, and you want to get inside the city. Taxis, shuttles, car rentals, and public buses are your best bets. Arubus bus service operates on Arubus Lines 8, 2, and 1 every 15 minutes from Reina Beatrix Airport Bus Stop, just outside the airline hub. Car rental kiosks are within the airport terminal, a short distance from customs. Aruba taxis, on the other hand, are outside the airline hub. Taxis and shuttles from AUA can easily get you to any local destination.

  • How do I get to the cruise ship terminal from Queen Beatrix International Airport?

    If you are flying into Aruba because you plan to go on a cruise at Oranjestad, contact the local tour operators since many will whisk you from the airport and ferry you to the cruise terminal upon arrival. Many even provide comprehensive packages, allowing you to start your holiday straight away. Alternatively, you can hail an Aruba cab or take the bus, which stops at the central bus station on Lloyd G. Smith Boulevard, an easy walk to the cruise terminal.

  • Tuesday is usually the cheapest day to fly, about 14% cheaper than Saturday, the priciest day. If your dates are flexible, that's an easy way to save. If not, try nearby airports or a layover instead.
  • If arriving on time matters more than price, consider flying with one of the most punctual airlines flying to Aruba: Delta, American Airlines, United Airlines or JetBlue.
  • Oranjestad is the most popular destination in Aruba. Start your trip here and then check out these other places KAYAK travelers love: Noord, Sint Nicolaas and Santa Cruz.
  • Consider a layover to Aruba, it can cost less than flying nonstop. Bogotá El Dorado (BOG) is typically the cheapest place to connect.
  • Aruba is the largest of the three Dutch territories in the Caribbean known as the ABC Islands and is one of the most popular destinations in the region. Queen Beatrix Airport (AUA), or Oranjestad Airport, is located along the west coast, midway between the districts of Noord and Santa Cruz.
  • Arikok National Park dominates the southern landscape of Aruba and is one of the country’s most important attractions apart from its beaches. This makes it a perfect family activity for any travel itinerary when planning flights from the US to Aruba, especially since the park is only around a 15m drive from Oranjestad Airport.
  • Vacationers taking flights from the US to Aruba should consider staying in the district of Santa Cruz, which is centrally located on the island, ensuring easy access for journeying to points east, west, north and south of the island. It is also only 20m from the airport, so no additional flights are required.
  • Aruba’s west coast from California Lighthouse in the north to Colorado Point in the south is dotted with coral reefs and is a perfect area to do some snorkeling. Therefore, if you’re looking for an excellent island getaway not far from home, a flight from the US to Aruba should be high on your list.
  • The eastern coast of Aruba is filled with many breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea, including the Natural Pool, Quadirikiri and the Colorado Point Lighthouse, so once you get settled in after your flight to Oranjestad Airport, you may desire spending a day discovering some of them and creating a few memories.
  • If you are looking to cut down on time spent at Queen Beatrix International Airport (AUA), Royal Airport Concierge and VIP Concierge offer butler services. They will have greeters waiting for you shortly after you disembark your plane in Aruba. Your airport concierge will assist with fast-track clearances so you can escape the long queues at arrivals.
  • If you are looking forward to a good sleep after a late-night flight to Aruba, consider reserving rooms at Hyatt Place Aruba Airport, which a roughly four-minute walk from AUA.
  • AUA has incorporated barrier-free facilities for special needs guests. Special needs passengers are transferred from the aircraft to the terminals on ramp-equipped shuttles, and lavatories and elevators are accessible by wheelchairs.
  • The ground floor's central hall hosts an information kiosk if you have inquiries about AUA, airport services, and connecting flight schedules. Its staff also gives recommendations on popular Aruba attractions.
  • If you are heading to Queen Beatrix International Airport with your furry companions, ensure they are kenneled at the terminals unless they are service animals. If you are outside the terminal, they should be on a leash.

Terrible, decided to delay our flight since another flight require a flight captain

staff and crew were great but the flight delays for the last few flights are insane. After a long day of work and you will get a notification of flights delay is not the message we want to see. And for some reason it keeps happening often this year.

I love southwest. I can not wait until all the planes convert to the upgraded planes. I love the charging option and the newer seats. Thank you from a very loyal Southwest customer.

My return flight was much better than the flight there! I paid for seat to Veagas but not the return. Thankgoodness they assigned me a seat with additional leg room as I have back and leg problems. I really appreciate it. With the flight already being super expensive due to gas prices and having to pay for bags (now) I needed to save some money.

My first flight from LGA to STL was not good. They didn't do service until over halfway through the flight, the internet didn't really work, and the crew all seemed like they didn't want to be there.

We were stressed about landing as our connecting flight was about to start boarding, being unfamiliar with the airport or where the gates were. We exited the plane to discover we were at the gate we needed. We would be getting back on the same plane but nobody told us we could have just stayed onboard. My wife and I were seated on aisle seats across from each other. We asked if there was a way we could sit together. Once we were at cruising altitude they let us move to an unoccupied row so that was nice.

It’s Southwest. The seats are small, the snacks are meh, it’s $50 to check a bag. It’s exactly fine. Could have been better. Could have been worse. It’s not Spirit

They delayed my flight all day but didn't try to reschedule me until all other options were gone. Ended up on a red eye. Not happy. Lesson learned, don't book the last flight from SJC to RDU.

Every single flight I take with southwest is delayed by at least one hour. Unbelievable

When I made my reservation it would have been nice if kayak would have included my luggage. Unaware that I had to pay $45 each way. Should have asked at reservation time if luggage was being checked

As an Elevance employee, don't we get priority boarding? Also, I boarded zone 5 and could not get normal carry on in luggage space. There were many Delta employees on the flight and their bags, which were large and could only fit two bags per compartment, got preference over customers so I had to check my bag.

Everything went smoothly, WiFi connection was strong. Time to upgrade the regional planes, we are all on top of each other. No room to comfortably do anything.

The bathroom is disgustingly dirty. It looks like the crew members didn’t clean it on a regular basis. Also, who made the bathroom so small?. I am not a big girl but I still feel very cramped inside. Def unpleasant experience to use the bathroom.

My experience with Delta is always pleasant. My return flight #1426 from ATL to RIC was very delayed with departure and landing. It also took a substantial amount of time for baggage claim. It was already late at night, so the delays made for a very long day. I did not get home until after 12 midnight.

I had a great flight with delta. Plane was clean and the staff was nice, I would fly again with delta.

After flying with Qatar Airways and Kenya Airlines. Delta leaves a lot to be desired

A 6hr delay is going to put a damper on all reviews. It was almost impossible to get into the Delta club also. Zero conveyance. I could not use my status for anything. Makes me wonder why am I loyal to delta?

I fly coach so there is always the feeling everyone up front has more space than me. Everything was fine - on time which is the most important thing!

Great overall experience and use of the Delta One lounge was amazing!

I used by Skymiles to upgrade to First so that I could comfortably work using my laptop. But WiFi was intermittent and unavailable for long periods. I feel like I wasted 70,000 miles :(

It is completely insane to me that first class does not include WiFi. Also does not include lounge access. Port for phone charging did not work. The crew was absolutely lovely, and the food was excellent.

I appreciate how quickly and kindly the people at the gate at DCA accommodated several of us who wanted to switch from the 6pm flight to the 5pm flight at the last minute. The flight crew was helpful to us too (dealing with luggage).

Very uncomfortable and cramped seats. Everything else was okay, the crew members were nice but nothing was exceptional.

Check in went smoothly. Flight attendant who was assigned my area barely paid any attention to me! She acted as though she was extremely busy and flustered. Maybe she was new?! I told her to change the language on my screen, she said she’d come back to help me but never did so I was able to solve the problem on my own. She came back and said she’d made adjustments on her end. Highly doubt it because I found the setting to change the language! Also, I noticed everyone was eating before we landed so I pushed my help button and she never came so I got up to find her to ask her if I can have breakfast. She said they are not serving breakfast but I can have a sandwich. Yes, that was her response as I saw everyone eating breakfast!!!

United staff were very communicative, the new starlink Wifi is amazing as I was able to work easily.

Starlink internet made the flight time shrink and I was able to work.

Tiny seat made for midgets. You can’t put a normal size human in such a tiny seat for 8 god damn hours! Hot plane, no air. Lost bags at Rome airport for 8 hours, lucky to have found them. Horrible flying experience, United Airlines should be embarrassed!

The issue is the flight is delayed, which causes me Missing the connecting flight by 3 mins. Remember the connecting flight is a US codeshare flight so UA should be able to inform the operating airline about the delay.

Seats are made for children. An 8 hour flight with tiny seats is more like a cattle car. Lost bags at Rome airport caused a 7 hour delay.

We sat on the tarmac in Denver for over 30 minutes because a plane was in our gate. The pilot kept saying it will just be 5 minutes or less. However, we sat for over 30 minutes. Experiences like this make customers not trust what the pilot is saying.

Fort Lauderdale doesn't have Priority Security line so why was such option available for purchase? I need a refund back

1/2 full flight, nice and comfy flight. On time, good service

Both ways the people in the rear section of the plane were forced to check their carry on bags. I would understand this if the size and number of bags were not limited, but I do not understand why there is not room for one small overhead bag per person, even if the flight is full. I could watch the baggage handlers loading the extra luggage from my window and I’m pretty sure mine wouldn’t have survived undamaged, even though it is new and sturdy.

You sent me a confirmation yesterday for a flight reservation today that I never made. What is going on?????

Entertainment, clean plane and funny pilot over the intercom was excellent… however, gate agent was rude and was probably a Spirit employee before they went bankrupt… there were 3 flight attendants - 2 of them didn’t want to be there the other one was kind and nice… I want you to recognize how you have to compete with Delta or South West airlines or even American Airlines which would choose over you at any given day from here on out. Please treat people respectfully. If you hate working in this industry - go and work somewhere else. The flight was very empty and it shouldn’t be hard to crack a smile once in a while. Very disappointing… I remember flying Jet Blue back in the day from Dulles IAD to LAX and you guys were super cool and fancy and made flying fun again - truly elevated the experience. Don’t become the next most hated airline… you can do better . I want you to succeed…

Free wifi was almost impossible to get, kept dropping the connection

Not good - we boarded and taxied for an hour before they told us there were technical issues with the plane. They told us we were going to need to deplane, parked back at the gate but then didn’t tell us we didn’t have to anymore. There was just a lot of uncertainties with poor communication.

Seamless flight, didn’t feel like five hours at all very smooth ride. Watched two good movies didn’t even realize I was on a plane. The staff were extremely nice and helpful.

First the flt was delayed over 2 hrs bc of plane mechanics that should have been handled better! No text or email was sent so only found out at the airport so there we sat for 5 hours! THATS RIDICULOUS! The gate area was filthy! No agents showed up till hr before so no additional info was given-waited online for 15 mins while the gate agent chatted and got together then given last seat in back of plane!! No priority for senior or anything-took attendants over 2hrs to serve drinks and snack-WHY are they not served together? By time snack came needed another drink! Worst service in my life!

No music app working: no economy meal on five hour flight; hour on tarmac at the end waiting for a gate. Flight itself was smooth and easy.

All good. Flight crew was super friendly at the end of a long day

All good. Easy check in and boarding. Lovely flight crew

Friendly crew and pilot. And thank you to the pilot for his smooth landing technique where the wheels don't hit the ground hard - that should be table stakes but doesn't seem to be the case nowadays.

Four hour delay due to late plane arrival- second year in a row on MCO - DCA route. Pitiful service reliability from American. Will avoid in future

Flight was fine, food could have improved (Chicken Enchiladas) and so could the entertainment options on the seat rest (there was none).

I have generally had positive experiences with American Airlines (outside a handful of delayed flights), which is why I wanted to share this feedback constructively. On my recent flight, my travel experience was extremely uncomfortable because my seat mate significantly encroached into my assigned seat space for the duration of the flight. As a result, I was forced to sit partially sideways, with much of my shoulder and upper body extending into the aisle. Unfortunately, my back still hurts from maintaining that awkward position.I recognize that this is a sensitive and challenging issue for airlines and cabin crews to address. Everyone deserves to travel with dignity and respect, and I understand that individual circumstances can vary. However, fairness also requires that all passengers have reasonable access to the seat space they have paid for. When one passenger's use of space substantially impacts another passenger's ability to sit safely and comfortably, there should be a practical solution available.I appreciate the complexities involved, but I hope American Airlines will continue exploring ways to ensure that all passengers can travel comfortably and equitably. This experience detracted significantly from what should have been a routine flight.

The crew was great! The issue for me is the aircraft. The Airbus A32x is just not comfortable enough and the entertainment delivery via personal devices is problematic.

The crew was dis respectful even in business class. I will not recommend AA to anyone and will also fly only when there is no choice

Three aircraft in succession experienced maintenance issues, resulting in a six-hour delay. The original aircraft required replacement, and the substitute aircraft arrived more than two hours late. Passengers boarded that aircraft, only to be told later to deplane due to maintenance concerns. We then boarded a different aircraft that had arrived at the gate, only to be instructed to deplane once again because it, too, experienced maintenance issues. After hours of delays and two separate boarding and deplaning events, passengers were directed to a third aircraft departing from a different terminal and had to rush across the airport to make that flight. That was the only aircraft that ultimately departed without incident. Of course, passenger safety must come first, and I am grateful these issues were identified before takeoff. However, when three aircraft in succession require maintenance attention and passengers are repeatedly boarded before those issues are discovered, it raises legitimate concerns about American Airlines' preventive maintenance procedures and aircraft readiness checks. One aircraft with an unexpected issue can happen. Three aircraft in a row, combined with multiple boarding and deplaning events, suggests a pattern that warrants review. American Airlines needs to take a hard look at both its maintenance practices and its decision-making process for boarding passengers before determining that an aircraft is ready for service.

Perhaps this is an airport issue, but being in a takeoff queue for over an hour in the taxiing lane is unacceptable. We will definitely be seeking alternative avenues for air travel in the future.
