Reservations needed to fly to Vieques
 
We have booked our trip to Puerto Rico for March - we are sepnding 5 days in the San Juan area and then flying to Vieques for 5 days - from the research I had done it appeared that you did not need reservations to fly from SJ to Vieques just show up at the airport and you could get a flight - but from another post on this site that appears to be incorrect - do I need to make reservations in advance?

Absolutely make reservations ahead of time. The planes are small and fill up fast. Basically puddle jumpers. If you go to www.vieques-island.com you can find a list of airlines. Recommend Vieques Air Link.. When you are in San Juan you might consider eating on the Beach at Pamelas at Numero Uno--1 Santa Anna. Good food and lovely dining experience.

Thanks for the information - we are actually staying at Numero Uno when we are in San Juan so I am sure that we will eat at Pamela's - have heard nothing but good reviews on it. I am going to contact Cape Air for flights - they are new and their schedule is a better fit than VAL for us. Thanks again - we can't wait.

We Flew MN Aviation just last week and were extremely pleased. We made reservations about 3 weeks in advance. We flew from San Juan International to Vieques, and the RT price per person was $150.
