Good morning,
Trying to arrange travel to Virgin Gorda in April.
The American Airlines flight is scheduled to land at 4:15
Is it unreasonable to think we could make the 4:30 ferry?
Thanks for the help.
Mike

Speedy's is an on-time operation. Unless your plane is very early, you're unlikely to make that ferry. If your group is large enough, you can charter a boat from Speedy's; see their website.

I have just joined this website!...however I saw your question. Having been to the BVI a few times, 15 mins to get through customs is not going to happen !
Have a great time though, it's a lovely part of the world.

for that to work and I doubt it would you need to upgrade on the AA flight to the 1st row preferrably left side and have carry on and be the first in the customs line. Just did it in Dec and was in and out in 10 mins...and hope the plane comes in early. If you are in the back of that plane you are looking at 45-1 hour

Highly unlikely you will make the 4:30.

IF their plane lands at 4:15 there is NO WAY they can make the 4:30 ferry!🙄

It took over an hour to get thru the airport last Saturday.
As mentioned upthread, we used Speedy’s private transfer option. It worked great coming and going.

A few years ago we had dive BVI pick us up from Trellis. It was $300.00, one way. There were 5 of us. I know Speedys and double d offer the same transfer.

I have,a group of 11 and we plan to use Seahorse Water Taxi. They facilitate the transfer from airport to your charter dock/vessel. They also manage C&I both ways, have solid reviews.

According to Speedy's website, it's $375 from Trellis to Spanishtown for up to ten people. Their other rates are going up, so don't know about this one.
