FAQs - booking Puerto Rico flights

  • What are some of the best choices to travel from the west coast of the United States to Puerto Rico?

    When making the trip from a large international Airport on the west coast, such as Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), travelers will find plenty of one-stop flight options aboard American Airlines that can make the trip to Puerto Rico in around nine hours, including a layover.

  • If I want to make my way to popular destinations like Vieques and Bioluminescent Bay from the United States, what are some of the best options?

    Probably your best choice is to fly to Mercedita International Airport or the Luis Munoz Marin International Airport (SJU) where you can easily access ground transportation to take you to Fajardo where you can then board a ferry to take the 30-minute ride to this location.

  • If I’m planning to go to Puerto Rico in January for the Festival de la Novilla in San Sebastian, what is the quickest way to get there from the United States?

    The Rafael Hernández Marín International Airport (BQN) offers the closest location to this part of Puerto Rico, and once you arrive on your flight to this airport from the United States, you can quickly drive to San Sebastian or take a taxi there in about 30 minutes.

  • What are some flight choices to get from the central part of the United States to Puerto Rico?

    One option is to leave from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW), and from this airport, you will see there are one-stop flights to Luis Munoz Marin International Airport on Spirit Airlines. You can also leave from Chicago O' Hare International Airport (ORD) to Luis Munoz Marin International Airport and fly on flights with no stops on either United Airlines or American Airlines.

  • Which airport should I use to visit El Yunque National Forest?

    El Yunque is unique for being the only tropical rainforest and is a haven for eco-tourists. The reserve lies among the Sierra de Luquillo mountains, which is located approximately 45m from San Juan so a flight into the capital is the best option and then you can make your own arrangements from there.

  • Can I get a flight from the US to Ponce in Puerto Rico?

    If you wish to visit Ponce, you will have to first fly into either Aguadilla Airport or San Juan Airport and then get a connecting flight to Mercedita Airport (PSE) in Ponce, or you can drive or take a taxi. The estimated driving time is 1h 45m from Aguadilla and 1h 30m from San Juan.

  • What’s the best way to visit the islands of Vieques and Culebrita?

    The islands of Vieques and Culebrita lie off the eastern seaboard of the mainland, so if you plan to visit either or both, flying into San Juan makes the most sense. Additionally, Culebrita is only a few miles from St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands so you may consider flying or taking the ferry from there.

  • Do I need a visa to visit Puerto Rico?

    Although Puerto Rico is not a US state, it is a territory of the United States and therefore there are no visa requirements for US citizens or permanent residents to travel there.

  • How long is the flight to Puerto Rico?

    An average nonstop flight from the United States to Puerto Rico takes 4h 54m, covering a distance of 1844 miles. The most popular route is New York - San Juan with an average flight time of 3h 50m.

  • What is the cheapest flight to Puerto Rico?

  • How does KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a given destination and date is likely to change within 7 days, so travelers know whether to wait or book now.

  • Parents taking children on a trip to Puerto Rico and renting a car should know that all children under the age of four need to travel in an appropriate child safety seat, and then up to eight years old they need to travel in a booster seat. All children under the age of 12 years old need to travel in the rear of a vehicle.

For example, if you’re staying in Carolina or Dorado then you should fly into San Juan Airport whereas Isabela and Rincon are closer to Aguadilla Borinquen Airport.

You can also use Florida Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) or Miami International Airport (MIA).
  • The island of Mona, due west of mainland Puerto Rico, is a natural reserve with no permanent inhabitants and is therefore an explorer’s dream. If you wish to visit this island, then your flight from the US to Puerto Rico should land at Aguadilla Airport. If you cannot get a flight from there to Mona Island, you can get one from Mayaguez Airport (MAZ).
  • Both international airports in Puerto Rico come equipped with several ATMs just in case you forgot to withdraw cash before your flight or for those who prefer to obtain some notes after their arrival in the country and there is a branch of Banco Popular at San Juan Airport if you require other financial transactions.

I upgraded to first class only to find out that I still had no access to the sky lounge without a sky miles card or AmEx (something that should be emphasized outside of the fine print!) Also, no food or drink service provided during the flight, so I basically paid 4x more just for “free” checked baggage and a bigger seat. Not worth it.

Also, no food or drink service provided during the flight, so I basically paid 4x more just for “free” checked baggage and a bigger seat. Not worth it.

I appreciated friendly service from check-in, to boarding, to in-flight amenities! Attendants were accommodating and helpful. Thank you! Elaine

Delta was really good about being transparent with why we were delayed it’s just that’s the plane was really old and outdated and a lot of the comfort and amenities we know Delta to have did not shine through

Bottom seat cushion is almost non existent. Very uncomfortable seat.

Delta was great the entertainment was outdated. Screen was very small and didn’t work.

Flight did not have seat back entertainment and the wifi was iffy.

Pretty standard flight. Delta has a good selection of movies.

The WiFi has been awful on my last few Delta Air Lines flights.

The seats are uncomfortable, feels like a small seat pad on plywood.

The seats are uncomfortable and there was no power to recharge a phone.

Smooth boarding and friendly crew. Unfortunately as soon as we boarded the unit that provides air circulation failed. The pilot informed us and requested maintenance technicians to check it out. The plane became uncomfortably warm without any fresh air coming in. Plus the repair delayed our departure. I am glad the maintenance crew were able to fix the problem. I also was without use of my tv monitor for the first 1/3rd of the trip.

Flight was on time arrived at the destination 10min early they kept in touch via email

Communication with the customer and stay is important. Staff off with a minor inconvenience but it worked out of course. Also this was a very old Mint Class plane. They snuck this one in on us. The updated aircraft are much better.

The flight itself was fine, but the boarding process was extremely frustrating. There is no one scanning boarding passes - passengers just scan themselves and enter the jetway. By the time my husband and I got on the plane and were halfway to our seats they determined there were too many bags on the plane and everything at that point needed to be checked. This created a lot of unnecessary chaos. They should have alerted people before getting on the plane that they would need to start checking bags instead of waiting until people were already on the plane.

The best flight I’ve had in a while. The plane was like 25% capacity, if that. Smoothest boarding and deplaning process I’ve ever experienced. Wish all flights were this smooth.

Did not enjoy this flight at all. All of my coworkers flew delta and I chose JetBlue because I really value how simple the WiFi and entertainment is and this flight I didn’t get either. Crew staff was unsympathetic to my system not working, everyone I asked for help with was extremely bothered by my request for help.

In flight on demand didn't work at our seats. Only a single beverage/snack run.

Little snafu at boarding. Staff communicated with gate poorly. Flight attendant was rude making disembark early. This was an older mint class. Needs an overhaul for sure. Food was good. The male flight attendant was really nice.

My encounter with the entertainment services provided on board was moderate; the functionality of the Wi-Fi connection was either sluggish or nonoperational, while the display screens were antiquated and suffered from poor visibility. On the positive side, the cabin exuded a sense of expansiveness, and the crew exhibited amiable and accommodating behavior throughout the journey.

Everything was great except for some reason crew and ground crew could not figure out how to deal with an electric wheelchair and it delayed us 20-30mins. Was pretty frustrating for passengers and the captain.

Overall good. Tight connection in DFW because of gate unavailability upon landing.

Airplane was cold. Flight attendants were rude. Phone charger did not work. No food available.

No food, no entertainment. But the flight was really short so maybe they had to skip drinks. I was able to board early ONLY because I am old and decrepit and they let me pre-board. I RESENT your dumping us into category 9 if we do not pay up. And when I paid for a seat I was STILL given 9. The pre-boarding helps. THIS flight was exceptionally smooth, please congratulate the pilots.

I love to flight american however my carry on had to be sent with regular luggage and it was broken. Don't appreciate that. If when I buy a ticket says I can take a carry on and a hand item there should be space for mwsy stuff and not be basically forced to send the item even if it's at no charge. A.A. needs to work on that. Everything else excellent.

Deparature was late, which is annoying but the arrival was fine and the baggage came early.

Excellent customer service at check in at Austin flight to DFW and excellent customer service from Karren in terminal B at DFW.

The free internet access did not work, so we had to purchase 2 Internet packages. Flight attendants were not proactive in checking in with first class patrons

The flight attendants were talking the entire time on the back and I couldn’t even take a nap. Super annoying

11h50m total delay. Had to switch to another flight that was still a 7h30m delay.

A very good flight. All personnel were gracious and pleasant. Good flight. No complaints.

Over 2 hour delay due to “weather” but all other flights were taking off with no issues. We felt lied to the entire time as well.

Never been worse. Never again even if the ticket were free.

Everything was excellent and as expected. The boarding process was great but deboarding was a bit slow. No fault of the crew; it just seemed like the passengers didn’t want to leave! 😂

waited 5 hours to tell us it was cancelled even when they knew

Easy! As long as you don’t mind no frills, our flight was enjoyable and on time

No carry on available to purchase at any point, charged for water, no power to charge phone. Other discount airlines have this.

Okay for the most part but Good boarding and on time

The flight was delayed and the announcements were hard to hear, but the crew was great

Smooth enough, delay-free and safe. All went as expected,

Not acceptable having both flights delayed and not real reason for .. plus paid for luggage and getting my bag ripped out .. very disappointed.

Stop changing gates at sfo. When you are elderly going back for it’s not fun.

We understand and comply with Frontier’s bag sizes. We’ve had some problems in past while having to await other passengers who do not understand the baggage restrictions or have not prepaid and that is usually our biggest concern (others delaying us) with flying Frontier. Flying OUT of ONT, however, has always been a great experience. I’ve also noted even on delayed Frontier flights very knowledgeable pilots who manage expectations well.

There was no easy way to check in. I don't want to install an app to checkin. I will use alaska from now on because they have a web check in method that is easy.

The crew was ghetto lol I felt like I was on an inner city field trip

Horrible! The short distance flight ended up taking 5 hrs! There was a 3 hr delay for the flight to take off and there was a 70 min wait on the tarmac for some bogus reason that the pilot said the gate he was supposed to board was taken up. After a 30 min wait he said the plane that was supposed to push out of the gate called a medical emergency and 40 min later he ended up boarding another gate. For the initial 3 hr delay there was no information/alert about the gate or delay in the app or the boards up until the boarding time and even beyond! Had to walk all the way to the end of the terminal to find the frontier staff to ask what was going on. Avoid this airline at all costs! If you have carryon bags or checked bags , their prices come equivalent to the prices of more reliable airlines. They are the worst in timeliness at 60% (reported as delayed) this year (check the data) by a high margin even compared to the second worst airline. If you are ok with having a miserable flight experience with the odds close to flip of a coin, feel free to try them. If you value your time , money and flying experience, stay away.

There was nothing to like, flight delayed had to move to different departure areas, disorganized to say the leasr

Delayed for two hours due to trivial issues. No reimbursment. Also on arrival further delay due to terminal malfunction.

Our flight was canceled for no known reason. We weren’t told until we were checking in at 5:00 am. This was after our last flight with Frontier where we sat on the plane for three hours (not an exaggeration) before we took off because of a mechanical issue. We won’t be flying Frontier again.

Allowed me to chose my seat without extra charge (I purchased full-price ticket) and boarding was in group1. Didn't even serve water.

I went to the Frontier counter in San Jose at 1030am or so on Sunday 10/13/24 to see if I could get an earlier flight to San Diego in lieu of my reserved 630pm flight. One thing led to another, and I was able to obtain an open seat for about $ 56. on the earlier flight. Fine. Then the agent asked if I "was checking a bag". Not knowing that carry-ons cost extra per Frontier policy, I thought that she meant a regular checked bag. Therefore, I said no. Once I got to the gate, the same gate agent who sold me a ticket told me that I had to pay $99 for a carry-on, and that all bags were extra on Frontier. Having never flown on Frontier, I was not aware of this. Part of the issue was that she was not a native English speaker, so there was a miscommunication as to what "bag" meant. I would have preferred for her to have clearly let me know at the front counter that any bag including a carry-on cost $99. It would have had the same outcome, as I had to take my carry-on. But it got hectic at the last minute at the gate itself. The baggage policy should have mentioned "including carry-ons" when we first spoke.
