Both airports have ATMs in case you need some cash after you arrive.

  • Which island has some of the best beaches?

    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%).

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 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 December 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 17% 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 Cruz Bay.
  • 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.

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

Crew was a little surly. But plane left on time and arrived early. All one can ask for. New 737 Max was nice.

Flight was delayed about 50 minutes and completely full. they did the usual demand for people to check carry-ons. they called all groups to board very fast only to stand in the gangway after having boarding passes scanned. Why don't airlines board from the back to front - since they now have assigned seats? our stewardess got drink orders confused, so she just called out "cranberry". etc.,.. I wish they wouldn't serve pretzels snacks with a powdered coating, as it sticks to your hands and they don't have wet wipes. don't want to lick my fingers after hanging out in the terminal for over an hour.

Delayed over 3 hours, extremely rough landing on all four flights. Would not recommend

Boarding, crew and inflight entertainment was great. Could have better food options for a long flight. Paid money and got a seat with extra leg space but was asked to keep my carry on under the seat in front of me which defeats the purpose of buying a extra space seat.

On time departure and arrival. Had to be the oldest plane in the SWA fleet but it got me where I needed to be.

Flight was delayed out of BWI unexpectedly / without a reason given but otherwise ok.

I got a bit sick on the flight, and was so grateful when the male flight attendant explained to me they keep the back row open for cases like mine. He took such great care of me! I was incredibly grateful.

Friendly crew. Snacks were carb-heavy. Flight was quite delaye

The service was fine, about the same as you get on most lower end airlines. I dont understand the perks of flying them much anymore for the cost.

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 :(

Great as one can be for a one connection 6 hour flight

Packed flight and not sure why dinner service would start at midnight while passengers we’re trying to sleep

The gate attendant was not clear w message on flight delays.

Chairs don’t recline and the ones that do recline, barely do recline. It was most uncomfortable flight i ever been on.

Good but not on par when compared with foreign flag carriers.

Good service but not on par when compared to foreign flag carriers.

Mechanical delay of 2 hours without telling us Canadians of the potential compensation for this delay. As this caused 2 out of three people in our travelling party to miss their connecting flights until the next day.

Travelling with 2 others for work. Delta asked to check their carry ons due to the fullness of the plane. This was all good until the next leg of the flight. One of the 3 had their carry on checked through to the final destination but their passport on in their checked bag. Which they could not get to and he was not allowed on to the plane. Even though Delta had to retrieve his bag, because he was not allowed on. So they got his bag and he was in the terminal, but even when the flight was delayed, due to mechanical issues, he was not allowed to come onto the plane. Since the delay was nearly 2 hours, he was finally allowed back on the plane.

good in general food is just snack and beverages (same snacks all the time) could you try to change them?

There was no internet on the flight. As an executive flying during prime business hours, having internet is critical for a smooth experience. This impacted productivity and time that will need to be spent later to do the work I could have done on flight.

Terrible boarding - 4 flights boarded from the same gate. Chaos there; long ramps to the plane.

Flight delay in lax which delayed our connecting flight to Copenhagen. Was placed on standby the following day and got delayed again at Scandinavian air. Bad bad counter service at ar Canada in Toronto by the name of Camilla who said that she was doing us a courtesy for even finding a earlier flight for us after we the customer are the ones being inconvenient by the cancellation of our flight. Btw, we are going on a tour. Air Canada is the worse

The flight itself was ok, but one member of the crew was miserable

Fine except from Chicago to moline three different gate changes and flight times

The food could have been better and the entertainment could have better movies or streaming.

Connection times always good online, but not in reality when first leg is delayed (2 out of 2 times this trip).

When booking, the connection times seem fine. But in reality, my two connections were cut short by the first leg being delayed due to issues at the destination (too much traffic going into SFO, ORD) and it became extremely stressful.

It was good flight was smooth, little cold on the plane but other wise good.

I need to note that this flight experience was generally fine but the boarding situation was absolutely a mess and there wasn’t any actual priority boarding. I rated the experience poorly because I’m am genuinely so frustrated with the crew on United taking the baggage space in first class. This flight it didn’t happen, but the last few flights (when I ironically don’t get an opportunity to provide feedback) have been spoiled because upon entering the first class cabin as one of the first few seated passengers, the overhead bins are full and ‘crew’’ tags are on the bags of those taking space. I don’t intend to infer some sort of a class or caste system but it’s absolutely ridiculous that the crew takes the overhead storage above and beyond their most loyal and lucrative customers. They should not even have economy space IMO. And I’ve gotten grief when I’ve noted to the crew the ridiculousness of the notion that the crew (who are the last off the plane) should have priority over flyers who pay. I hope you find a way to convey this message to United because it’s happening with increasing frequency and I intend to find a way to expose the specific crew members who are doing this on a flight by flight basis. (And I have a day job)

The boarding agent and checked bag agent were both rude. It only takes a second to be kind. However, the flight crew was amazing. I got a turkey sandwich and it wasn't bad---not great but not bad. The internet was my biggest problem. This was a work trip and I REALLY needed the internet to meet a deadline but it didn't work for 80% of the trip. Very disappointing.

I tried to check in beforehand from Ireland. The Jet Blue website sent me to the Aer Lingus website and vice versa. I tried to get a boarding pass at Dublin Airport as well, but they said they couldn't help me either. I had to wait until I arrived at the gate in Boston to secure a boarding pass...it was a bit nerve wracking.

Great flight. Best in years. Very clean craft. Easy boarding. Communicative pilot. Friendly flight attendants. Absolutely smooth take off, in flight and landing. Very comfortable seats. Smoothest flight I've experienced in years. THANK YOU JET BLUE!

I was asked to pony up an additional $239 (over the $735 paid originally) for a one way middle seat, which was very uncomfortable. Where did you expect me to sit?

Jet Blue sevice was good. Just don't understand why they charge for earphones to listen to flight entertainment. Other than that, everything was excellent.

Mostly good, flight take off in time and land earlier I can’t ask for more..

The crew was not nice this time. I asked for a drink one time and the girl didn’t say anything to me and just got me the hot drink while walking super fast to the back. We were sitting in the back and she wasn’t doing anything except socializing. She was upset I asked for something and she had to do her job. I also didn’t fully have it in my hands when she handed it to me so it was dangerous. She was abrupt and rude. She wouldn’t allow for people to spread out like previous flights we had been on if they were empty, and there were empty rows. It was strange and she enjoyed being angry at us.

The plane was FREEZING COLD. Like I was wishing I'd brought gloves. Is this how JetBlue sells more blankets? Other than that, all fine. Crew just as nice as usual. A flight attendant asked (who? The pilot?) to have the air turned down for a great number of passengers who were as cold as I was. They (again -- who is "they") did not.

Flight was fine, but I was annoyed to have to pay for luggage again. We had paid for our luggage on our first two connecting flights with SATA Azores Airlines, but had to pay for luggage again with JetBlue at JFK airport. For one trip we paid over $500 for two suitcases to travel from Azores to San Francisco.

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

Fine. No announcement for Concierge Key to board. Not a big issue just pointing it out.

Totally uninformed of the situation. Not yet sure about compensation. Highly disappointed.

Horrible. Their delay cause me to miss my connection, the the flight they rebooked was delayed over an hour because they over booked the crew. They also left my suitcase out in the rain for hours ruining items I had in the suitcase and blew off my complaint.. worst experience ever.

The flight was almost an hour delayed causing me to miss my connecting flight, then the rebooked flight was delayed a couple of hours. They also left my suitcase in the rain for hours ruining some items I had in there. They also just blew off my complaint. It was my absolute worst flight experience of all time:

Nothing available at the assigned hotel as far as brush, toothbrush, etc after forced layover with bags that departed

Crew tried to accommodate late arrival due to late departure

The now boarding notification was not updated in the app until I was actually on the plan. This si a massive fail considering my flight was delayed several times. These types of failures add stress that could be avoided since I no longer feel comfortable leaving the boarding area to get food or visit a lounge. Had I used the notification from the app, I would have missed my flight. The secondly, the process of connecting to wifi on aa flights is clunky and could be streamlined better. the copy and past process feels like MVP, and you are well beyond that stage.

I injured myself during my trip. The staff of American Airlines were very compassionate and empathic. They took additional steps to make my experience easier. Thank you!!

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.
