February trip to VG - current status of airport - 08/29/2021 04:03 PM

Hello

We are excited to return to VG in February and just paid our deposit for the rental house.

Another thread mentioned the airport being closed for runway paving.

Any links to information about the project? Or first hand news?

Our preferred method of travel is to use Island Birds from SJU.

Even if the airport was open, it's not a port of entry currently. You need to fly to Beef Island to clear and be processed thru the COVID protocols.

Yes, we are waiting (hopefully) for the re-opening of the VG and Anegada airports as ports of entry. You can fly to Anegada but, as Jason says, you must clear in and be tested at Beef Island before continuing on. I have not heard if VG airport is open for "local" flights . . .

I have no specific insight for you but I would personally be very surprised if the VG airport was open for your trip in February. I would advise planning on flying into Beef Island and then catching a ferry or private water taxi from Beef -> Spanish Town
