St Kitts / Getting There

St Kitts is pretty well served with flights. It has direct services from the States and from Europe, and it is well served by local hopper flights from regional hubs, which have extremely good onward connections to both Europe and the States. The easiest way to the island is to fly into Robert L Bradshaw International, but if you cannot find a direct flight into St Kitts your best options are via Antigua, which has many services from the UK, and from the States and Canada. Alternatively try St Maarten, which is well served from mainland Europe as well as the States. Internal flights are available on regional carrier LIAT, which touches down on many islands along the chain. There are also small private charter airlines if you wish to make the hop at your own convenience.

St Kitts is also an option if you are flying into Nevis next door. The seven minute onward flight transfer is no longer available and all travel is now by water taxi or ferry. The inter-island ferries between St Kitts and Nevis are fun to travel at leisure, but not really a practical means of reaching your hotel or catching an outbound international flight. See Getting Around for more information on ferry services.
