I am planning a trip in July to Little Dix Bay. The transfers and ferries and boats and plans are all so confusing. We will be connecting through Charlotte on AA. Would you recommend just going Charlotte - San Juan- EIS and then my understanding is that Little Dix Bay will take us from there? There will be 6 of us so we could also opt for a private boat ferry, issue is that we are only coming for 4 nights total, so time is limited. Willing to spend a little more (not private jet more) to get there with less hassle and more time to spend at resort.
Thanks!

Definitely fly to EIS vs. St Thomas. By the time you travel, the airport in VG might be open. I love landing there so I'd go that route if you can.

I'd reach out to Little Dix. They are charging enough to offer some expert advise.

The Little Dix Bay instructions are pretty clear with good options!

If the Virgin Gorda airport is open, consider chartering from SJU to Taddy Bay on Island Birds.

Thanks for the info! It looks like Virgin Gorda airport may be opening up later this year again. Hopefully some of the testing/restrictions will be relaxed by next summer.

Island Birds SJU to VG is our preferred method. Island Birds makes is very easy to transit thru SJU coming and going. The flights are very scenic.

It was officially announced VG airport will be opening for Thanksgiving. It remains to be seen if this actually happens, but certainly promising.

For a stay at LDB, this is absolutely the best way to get here.

Is this a private charter? Or do they do scheduled trips?

With six people, the cost shouldn't be bad.
