A Smoother Connection Starts Here.

Every Caribbean airport works a little differently. Knowing where to go, who will meet you and what to expect can make your Island Birds connection remarkably simple.

Find your airport below and review the instructions before you travel. We also recommend keeping a working cell phone with you so our team or ground handlers can reach you if needed.

Keep Your Phone On

Please provide Island Birds with a working cell phone number that you will have with you while traveling. This helps us coordinate your arrival and departure if anything changes.

Tell Us About Carry-On Only

If your entire party will be traveling with carry-on luggage only, please let us know in advance. This can make a significant difference to airport and departure logistics.

Know Your Meeting Point

Some airports use private FBOs, some use airline terminals and others have dedicated ground handlers. Check your airport instructions before arrival so you know exactly where to go.

We’ll Help Make It Easy

Island Birds coordinates with local ground handlers throughout the Caribbean to make the transition from terminal to private aircraft as simple and personal as possible.
