Turks and Caicos Islands / Getting There

Flights

Located only a couple of hours from Miami, there are several daily flights connecting Miami with Provo with American Airlines. From other cities in the USA, there are flights with Continental, Delta, jetBlue, United and US Airways. 

Canadians can book a direct flight to Provo with either Air Canada or lower cost WestJet. The only direct connection with Europe is a weekly British Airways service making a stop in Nassau on the way. Europeans from other countries can book a flight to Miami and then change to American Airlines. 

For flights within the Turks & Caicos and the rest of the Caribbean, Air Turks & Caicos is the national carrier, connecting the archipelago with Bahamas, Dom Rep, Haiti and Jamaica. Global Airways is another national carrier mainly focusing on domestic flights to North, Middle and South Caicos, Grand Turk and Salt Cay. Bahamasair is also flying on the route between Provo and Nassau.
