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

    Yes, they do.

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. After you arrive at St. Thomas Island Airport and take the ferry to the island, you can visit them all.

    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 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 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.

Smooth flights, connection, and friendly crew in the air and at the gate.

Flight was delayed again. I fly out every other weekend and lately the flight is delayed 3 out of five times 🤷🏻‍♀️

A List preferred boarding was nice Asked for a mask and cheerfully received Denver bag check-in is tricky. Not near other checking desk. Have to navigate to east security and up to level six for bag checkin. TSA busy and 20 minutes process thru pre lines Denver train to gates quick but one more thing to plan time for and long concourse walk to gate

Not exactly Southwest’s problem, but the new Burbank airport is not great. No restaurants open and tons of work still to be completed. Can’t believe they opened the airport in that condition.

You made me miss my connecting flight. I can not go to Cleveland on teh revised flight you are sending as I will the entire meeting. I have no option that to fly back. I hope you compensate me for the loss.

Overall great! Internet was a little slow but no other issues.

Horrible communication from Southwest. No accountability. Flight was delayed for 4 hours and TSA closed in the interim. We were not allowed to our gate. Southwest knew this information and did not relay to their customers to arrive to the airport earlier.

Flight boarded 2.5 hours late (my second southwest flight of the day with late departure), the gate agent was grumpy and unhelpful. Said she was "tired so we aren't going to follow normal boarding order". No complaints about the actual flight crew.

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.

There was an incredibly surly flight attendant that ruined the experience

Good but since we got in early we had to wait on runway for our gate. That was kind of a bummer but we still got in earlier than planned For entertainment I was watching a movie and getting close to the end of it with 15 min left but it kept jumping automatically to the next movie before finishing.

Delta seems to be getting worse. They are trying to take any comfort away from poorer people to make more money selling it to the rich. I paid for delta comfort and on my flight from Rome to jfk I had a tv that would go on and off automatically and literally no electrical outlets or usbs worked which was advertised in the price of the fare. The infotainment system wasn’t fully working. Luckily the movies worked and the plane was needing a lot of repairs. The jfk to Tampa flight they stuck me next to this really larger guy who was half in my seat and they should have made other accommodations for him because now you’re interfering with the fare class I paid for and act like I shouldn’t care because I didn’t pay for first class. I couldn’t even pull out my tray table because of this guy. The safety video tv screen you couldn’t even see it. It made me a little scared to fly delta anymore, because if these planes are this much in need of servicing, I have to wonder if the plane is going to make it to the destination.

Delayed departure, 30min. but arrived nearly on time. Crew was reassuring.

First, off the bat, the Delta gate attendant was rude, inattentive and gave us an attitude when we asked for clarification of our seats for this rebooked flight as we missed our connecting flight due to the delay from Berlin. Flight attendants were all but friendly, rushed through for water refills so you couldn’t even catch them to request more water. Snacks were just OK. Headphones for the movies were so bad that with the airplane noise, the volume of the movie wouldn’t go up enough to even understand the voices. I had to turn on CC to even know what was being said.

Great flight. Thank you for the upgrade to first class.

The landing was sooooo bad. I have never seen such a hit to the ground.i got a jerk to my back as i was sitting on the rear emergency exit. So felt the impact eveb stronger. While we exit from the plane the power to the plane was cut off

Not up to Delta standards. Flight attendant in FC seemed more about just going through the motions than providing friendly customer service. Efficient but mechanical. Never smiled. Never acknowledged pleasantries. Never offered to hang my suit jacket. Just did her tasks. Fine, but not an optimal customer experience. .

Another pleasant experience flying Delta! Boarding was easy and efficient. The gate area was clean and uncrowded, and the gate agent was friendly, courteous, and professional. The flight itself went like clockwork. We experienced a slight delay, but that appeared to be related to operations at LaGuardia rather than Delta. Once underway, the flight was smooth, and the landing was gentle and uneventful. The flight attendants were equally courteous, attentive, and professional throughout the journey. Overall, a very pleasant experience. Thank you, Delta, and well done to the entire crew! 🙏🏽💗

Requested an aisle seat at the gate and got it. The staff so friendly

United, from whom we bought this code-shared flight, mid-flight canceled our tickets for the rest of our itinerary, without explanation. After long delay they tried to re-issue the tickets, but Air Canada could not find the re-issue. It finally resolved after escalation to several layers of supervisors.

Takeoff delayed 2 hrs. Boarded on time to find we were missing part of the flight crew. Then informed that they had loaded too much fuel. Spent 1 1/2 hrs sitting there burning off the excess, which included a couple of laps around the runway until we were light enough to fly! Ridiculous!

The WiFi went out an hour before the flight was due to land so I did not get my money's worth.

I have been flying united for a long time but now I’m done

It's not United, but TSA security at Terminal A in Newark is a disaster and seriously makes me consider switching to flying out of JFK. The touchless TSA pre-check had a line of over 50 people and the bag screening was so slow that it limited the flow of people through the facial recognition process. It is the only airport that I frequent that has this issue and makes me reconsider whether I should fly out of Newark given the wasted time and frustration it causes. As I said, it is not a United issue but will impact United if people choose to stop utilizing Newark airport because of the poor experience.

The food could be much better. Also very unfortunate that most of business class seats were empty but I could not upgrade.

Requested for warm or hot water because of throat pain, it was denied. The entertainment system was hung, requested the crew to turn it off, instead of turning it off they rebooted the device. It was stuck again, no one bothered to check.

Horrible on the chicago end. They change hates then there is a plane at the new gate so we can’t pull in. Then that plane has mechanical issue and needs to be pulled back to the gate but we can’t get to another new gate due the other plane being in the way. Horrible gate management which will cause many customers to miss connections.

- delayed because video screens not working - delayed getting a gate at DCA Just continued bad experience IAH to DCA.

Bag got checked but I thought one personal item was guaranteed.

I am always very pleased with the service u receive from JetBlue employees

Your Jet Blue representative at the check in desk in Boston on Sunday morning, October 13, was unkind and unhelpful. For that reason alone I will avoid JetBlue airlines in the future. No food or beverage on the flight due to turbulence (not your fault). However I paid extra to sit in the upgraded section in the front and did not benefit from most amenities.

we used to fly with a different airline but it shut down. We had to find an alternative airline that we like in order to make domestic trips and this fits the bill. Not only is it a similar price but the customer service and the experience overall is much much better. We will be using JetBlue again.

Uncomfortable seat. No help for my disability. Staff refused to help me put my carry-on in the overhead bin. So I had to check the bag.

Terrible. Quality has gone down significantly. Plane was delayed. No instructions from the staff. Will try to avoid in the future!

The flight left unexpectedly early. Although I checked in at the gate, the crew made no attempt to contact me to inform me that what had been a delayed flight was now departing before the scheduled departure time. No announcement on the PA, no phone call. When I checked back at the gate for the delay status just before the scheduled departure time, I was told the doors were already locked and the flight had left.

Late boarding, had to check the bag even though there was space on the flight and I was I row 7

Our seats were moved for no reason. The plane was old and wifi and tv were slow. The flight was delayed over an hour for a paperwork issue. Only bright spot was the flight attendants good service.

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.

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

American eagle and American Airlines are bad, cancelations, delays and no customer service

Smell of jet fuel was overwhelming from inside the plane while on the ground at take off and landing. Gave me a sore throat and a headache. During boarding, de-planing, taxi-ing, waiting in line for take off, etc. Also, the vents didn't have enough cool air coming out (yes, off course I opened it all the way) so the whole flight was hot and stuffy. But just my vent - all the vents.

Three terminal changes in DFW and once again a flight that was delayed. On time departures are rare with American. Not loving my experience lately. I fly every week.

Crew were helpful, pilot kept us informed about turbulence, snack choice was awesome!

It was one of the worst I have ever had. The plane was over booked, and I did not have a seat. When I questioned why because I had booked this weeks in advance. I was brushed off to be advised they are trying to find someone to give up their seat. Only to be advised I would be boarding last. I had priority boarding in group 1-4. When I asked why I had to be last because that is not what I paid for I was advised it doesn't matter you will get a seat. The ticket person was very rude and unprofessional. The gate changed several times and it was going from one area to another area far away from where we were at. I feel like I should have been compensated in some kind of way because of the way I was treated. The ticket agent acted like it was my fault that the plane was over booked. Not one time was I apologized to for this inconvenience.

We had bad delays and waited for hours on end, we did receive a 12 dollar coupon to use in the airport though. Oh wait, we got that on the plane so we couldn't even use it. I truly never want to fly American ever again.

Over a 4.5 hour delay. Another flight took our plane and crew

No food on 4.5 hour flight, wi-fi did not work. Terrible experience for a long haul flight.

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.
