  • Do they use US dollars in the US Virgin Islands?

    Yes, they do. While the islands are considered "unincorporated territories" of the United States, they do use the same currency, so there are no foreign exchange transactions involved for US citizens or permanent residents after your flight from the US to US Virgin Islands. Both airports have ATMs in case you need some cash after you arrive.

  • Which island has some of the best beaches?

    This is a matter of personal preference, however according to many travel magazines, St. John has some of the most pristine and beautiful beaches (Trunk Bay Beach, Honeymoon Bay Beach) that are included on the Top 10 list.

  • Is Christiansted Airport near Virgin Islands National Park?

    Virgin Islands National Park is the biggest national park in the US Virgin Islands and consumes most of the island of St. John (about 60%). While it is relatively close to Christiansted Airport, St. Thomas Island Airport on St. Thomas is much closer, so you should factor that into your travel plans.

    It is recommended to travel by taxi or rental car when on holiday in the US Virgin Islands. Please be advised, though, that you must use the left side of the street when driving around the islands.

Direct flights to Saint Thomas (STT) are accessible out of Charlotte (CLT), New York (JFK and EWR), Orlando (MCO), Atlanta (ATL), Fort Lauderdale (FLL), and Miami (MIA).

    Flights to the United States Virgin Islands from the southern U.S. and the east coast are significantly faster than flights from the west coast. Direct flights out of Charlotte, Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, New York, and Atlanta to St. Thomas (STT) will take a shorter time as compared to flights, which involve a transfer. Flights to Christiansted are a bit prolonged as they normally incorporate a transfer. Flights to the Virgin Islands from the west coast like Los Angeles (LAX), will include at least one layover at Miami (MIA) or Dallas therefore the total travel time will be longer, spanning between 12 to 17 hours.

Your guide to booking flights to the U.S. Virgin Islands

Get tips on when to book, when to fly and what to know before your trip.
  • If you can plan ahead, the sweet spot for booking your flight is 4 weeks before your trip. KAYAK data shows fares in this window are around 16% lower than last-minute bookings (made within 2 weeks of departure). Not ready to commit? Set a Price Alert and we'll let you know when prices change.
  • If your dates are flexible, January usually has the best deals, while June tends to be the priciest. The best-time-to-travel chart on this page shows how prices move across the year.
  • Tuesday is usually the cheapest day to fly, about 20% 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 you're looking to save, Saint Thomas Island Cyril E King (STT) has had the lowest fares over the past 12 months. Just remember to factor in the cost of getting to your final destination.
  • Saint Thomas Island is the most popular destination in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Start your trip here and then check out these other places KAYAK travelers love: St. John, Christiansted and Kingshill.
  • Consider a layover to the U.S. Virgin Islands, it can cost less than flying nonstop. Fort Lauderdale (FLL) is typically the cheapest place to connect.
  • The US Virgin Islands are considered a dependent territory of the United States; therefore, US citizens do not require a passport or a visa to visit the islands. Permanent residents also do not require a visa, but all other visa holders and foreign nationals should check with their local consulate before making travel arrangements.
  • The US Virgin Islands comprise the Caribbean islands of St. Croix, St. Thomas and St. John. Two of them have international airports: Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport (STX), otherwise known as Christiansted Airport, on St. Croix and Cyril E. King International Airport (STT), or St. Thomas Island Airport. Visitors traveling to St. John need to take a ferry from St. Thomas.
  • St. Croix is the most southerly and largest of the islands, although most of the flights from the US to US Virgin Islands are destined for St. Thomas. You can get nonstop service from Florida Fort Lauderdale Airport (FLL) to Christiansted Airport via Spirit Airlines, which uses the airport as a hub.
  • St. Thomas is the easternmost of the group of islands and is the closest to the Eastern seaboard of the United States, hence the number of scheduled flights from the US to US Virgin Islands. Charlotte Amalie is the capital of the island, lies due east of St. Thomas Island Airport and is home to the landmark Blackbeard’s Castle.
  • The smallest of the US Virgin Islands is St. John, which marks the boundary between the US territories and the British Virgin Islands. Pillsbury Sound separates St. Thomas and St. John and is home to several islets, including Thatch Cay and Lanvango Cay. If your flight is destined for St. Thomas Island Airport, you can discover them all for yourself.
  • If you’re flying to the U.S. Virgin Islands’ capital Charlotte Amelia on St. Thomas Island, consider booking your flight to Cyril E. King Airport (STT). The Airport is situated approximately two miles from Charlotte Amelia making it easier to move around the city center.
  • If you are connecting to U.S. Virgin Islands from the U.S., consider booking your flight to STT. STT serves as the supreme gateway into the United States Virgin Islands. STT has an ideal connection to major airports around the world and receives multiple airlines flying from Miami (MIA), Washington D.C. (IAD), Atlanta (ATL), Orlando (MCO), Charlotte (CLT), Los Angeles (LAX), Fort Lauderdale (FLL), and New York (EWR and JFK), among other cities.
  • On St Thomas, there’s a synagogue - an ancient American synagogue, where the floors are made of sand. Saint Thomas travelers yearning to visit this national historic landmark should consider flying to STT and taking the ferry to the synagogue.
  • To see the spread-out St. George Village Botanical Gardens on St. Croix as well as keep an eye out for various species of giant sea turtles. Consider booking your flight to Henry E. Rohlsen International Airport (STX) it’s quite close to the botanical garden.
  • St. Thomas has sandy stretches with magnificent beaches. On the north coast, there’s Magens Bay a perfect place for kayaking or swimming, and Lindquist beach in Smith Bay Park on the eastern end. Consider flying to STT to access St. John’s beaches.

Your computers were down and took a long time to check baggage

Southwest has lost most of what made it special. The flight attendants all used to seem fun and like they were having fun. Now they seem just miserable. They do NOT seem happy to give you your pretzels and drinks. They stick it in your hand or on your tray like it's an annoyance. They bark safety instructions at you. It's not just this flight but the last few SW flights I've had to SNA and SAN as well and it's not just me. I've informally surveyed my colleagues (business and leisure travelers) and these feelings are consistent. The tickets are similarly priced to other carriers and the seat assignments make boarding slower. The free luggage and free ability to change flights is still a differentiator. You lose that and there's virtually nothing special left.

Flight attendant skipped about 6 rows for drink service. I got a side eye when I asked for a drink - like it was an inconvenience or my mistake. He shouldn't be on a flight if he doesn't like his job and doesn't have customer service first attitude.

The entire crew were wonderful but 1 flight attendant stood out with his sense of humor on the microphone. I told him as much as I exited the plane.

They did not fix the wifi that they knew was an issue on an earlier flight. The flight was filled with business people that were clearly frustrated not being able to work. That can’t happen on a 3 1/2 hour flight. Would rather have been delayed a bit.

The WiFi did not work three hours of productivity lost. 15 people from the firm were on the flight. Loss of revenue

Very rude stewardess; there was a senior citizen woman next to me who asked the stewardess for help getting her purse out of the overhead bin, and it was as though she asked the stewardess for $1M . . . . I was shocked how rude that stewardess was. The stewardess also refused to get the senior citizen woman a drink about half way thru the flight, telling her that we were almost landing . . . . that stewardess made my flight (and in particular the flight of the senior citizen next to me) very uncomfortable

Overall good experience...exception: very cold temp in teh cabin.

I liked how it boarded fast. I do not like how the seats are just too narrow, and I’m not a big person.

Stop asking fir people to check carry on and then bind are free. Then the wait to get your luggage is ridiculous. This particular flight came with a 45 min wait, after waiting in tarmac waiting for a gate inhaling jet exhaust. And how about those landings?! Do the pilots not know the earth is coming up under the descending plane?! This is the only airline I get sick on. Every. Time.

My bag was open when I got to Portland and all my clothes were wet and my parking pass was wet

Had to deplane 2 x due to problems with plane. Delayed over 6 hours ans was given a $12 food credit which barely oaud for anything and limited to wear incoukd redeem.

After boarding the plane had to wait an hour at the for the copilot to show up before we could depart

No beverage/snack service without any explanation or reason. Late boarding and delayed flight.

more room in seats, larger snacks, more comms with delays

There was overbooking that delayed boarding. Then an airport emergency lockdown that caused further delays in boarding. However the time was made up during flight and there was a minimal delay in landing. Everything else was excellent.

Very crowded and the economy seats were the smallest and with the least legroom I have ever experienced. Cabin staff were excellent although the food service was chaotic as they were being each person their food individually instead of from the wagon.

Delta is the best. It was all very easy and on time.

The cabin and bathroom experience was poor as the cabin and bathroom were dirty and showed signs of an older plane that had not been updated for Customer’s, comfort and health. There was gum on my seat when I arrived and dirt spots around the fan and light controls. The flight was almost entirely full, so there was no way I could be moved from my seat. Th bathroom had the peeling paint.

Wifi worked inconsistently; outlet to charge computer did not work.

I especially enjoyed having a lightly packed flight which enabled me and my wife to occupy a three seat area with nobody in the middle seat.

Fantastic experience once again flying with United! There was great communication from the cockpit and one of the flight attendants went out of her way to get my two little kids some special treats which elevated our travel experience coming home.

1) United economy seats barely recline. 2) I have yet to get United WiFi to work, after numerous flights.

Flight attendants need to know their plane. Seated in first row yesterday. The seat had about a 1 inch recline that was not adjustable. I don't appreciate being awakened to raise a seat that can't go any further forward and such a small recline is either irrelevant or the plane needs to be repaired. Not the way to treat any customer and especially the ones who have paid that level of money for the seats.

The experience was good overall; however, my United Airlines Mileage Plus Account didn't reflect my flights to Houston from Newark. In essence, my mileage rewards points do not reflect my actual travel. This should be corrected.

Delayed - leaving, delayed getting to the gate at destination. What should have been a very easy flight and experience was not.

Plane arrived an hour before departure. Plane was completely boarded and ready for push back when they decided they needed to change a tire. 1 hour delay on the plane when this could have been done before we got on the plane.

Flights was great, service and transit support was outstanding - but the food was limited and of poor quality - only a snack on the first hour for 2 hours 1/2 leg. and a light breakfast on the second 4 hour leg.

The seats are very small, that is all the staff did a good job.

It was great. The staff is always helpful and polite. The app is great and makes the whole trip and process so easy. They even offer a step to step guide to your correct terminal. And they keep all the information you'll need updated. Anything you can think of! Great experience.

Unacceptable pre-boarding ticket issues. Paid for and reserved Mint seat approximately a month in advance. Checked in to flight in Mint seat 24 hours before flight. Shortly before flight, was bumped out of Mint entirely, even though other Mint seats were still available and for sale. Was told it was "operational", however seats were still available/being sold. Got to gate and they could not explain it, but the gate agent was able to put me back into Mint (however to a different seat). Nothing proactive done by Jetblue, I would have been bumped had I not arrived at gate early enough to have a helpful gate agent rectify. No explanations from Jetblue.

The crew did not ensure the Evermore seats had their carry on space available. When my family and I boarded, we saw people putting their carry on suitcases in the overhead spaces above our seats and then proceed to the rear part of the plane. This resulted in us having to check our bags and being late to our meetings/events.

Crew was friendly. Free headphones would be nice. Free new movies would be better.

Diana at the gate was unhelpful which was fine, but she was also rude which I did not appreciate at all.

Multiple delays, poor communication, dismissive staff, chaotic boarding, broken seat back entertainment. Not really much to like.

The crew was friendly and helpful. The entertainment system in my row did not work for movies and TV shows and the Direct TV cut off in parts and stopped showing the baseball playoff game.

Non-stop commercials were frustrating when trying to view direct TV

Forced to check bag, even though plenty of space in overhead bins. Did not appreciate having to wait at baggage claim to retrieve suitcase.

Great. I was in mint class. Security was spectacular. A lot of room on the flight! And the WiFi worked this time- it didn’t work the last time and I am on a business trip so that was a problem.

Crew was excellent! Food not served because it was such a short flight.

We did not fly on American Airlines from Chicago to London. We were rebooked on British Airways (by American Airlines) and our luggage was left behind. A full day delay and lost luggage.

Business class flight attendant was very good. But our flight was delayed two hours for a “mechanical” bathroom issue that literally took 5 minutes to fix. Our plane landed early from its previous flight but still waited for a mechanic to show up to fix an obvious minor issue for almost three hours. This caused us to miss our connecting flight. They put us up in a Days Inn that was 17 miles away from the airport that took a half hour of driving just to get to and this was at 11pm at night. Then when we finally got back on a plane after a full day delay they left our luggage back in the airport. This was an international flight, so no luggage or belongings after flying 8 hours to a different country. We will NEVER fly American Airlines again.

12 hour wait in pdx to my initial flight to Dallas to hunstville

I was able to enlist on standby for an earlier flight, and eventually made it (last row). However, the experience was poor and felt unfair. On the standby list, I was ranked #2 (#1 had been cleared a seat). The person ranked as #3, who was also in the queue alongside me was given a seat much earlier - with group 4 boarding (a seat within the first 2 rows after business class). When inquired about why I was skipped-over on the priority list, the gate agent first paused (likely cuz she couldn't explain) - and then gave me the standard expectation that if a space opens up, she'll give me the seat. Despite my priority ranking being higher, I was unduly held-back, and could have missed the plane - unfairly giving advantage to someone else. Luckily one seat opened up; but given the unfair assignment of standby seat by gate-agent, this was a subpar boarding experience.

The airline was small and the seats were not comfortable to sit in for that length of time.

Everything was fine except they changed the gate number and we ended up running all over LAX because of it.

Flight DFW > CVG was delayed with late notice. My flight into DFW from CVG (previous) was delayed by multiple hours with very poor communication & advance notice. And having the flight attendants announce the credit card during the flight when I can't opt felt very insulting and cheap. I already paid you for the flight, you shouldn't be able to take my time and attention hostage for further advertising.

Im sitting here waiting over an hour for my golf clubs

Flight delayed 3 times due to maintenance (on exact same plane that had just brought us from Boston to Miami). Eventually changed to a different plane and gate.

Both flights were delayed. One by an hour and the other by 1 1/2 hours after boarding.
