St. Croix, the largest of the U.S. Virgin Islands, now has increased options for getting there from the mainland United States and, better yet, improved connection options.
What's new: American Airlines will serve St. Croix’s Henry E. Rohlsen Airport (STX) from Miami (MIA) with twice daily flights through the summer peak— which arrive in the afternoon and evening, and depart St. Croix in early morning and in the afternoon—before scaling back to daily service in the fall. In early November, twice daily flights will resume to meet the holiday demand, including for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Weekly Saturday service is available for visitors originating in or transiting through Charlotte (CLT) throughout the year with some expected reductions in the fall.
Meanwhile, Delta Air Lines provides flights five days per week through early April from Atlanta, with weekly Saturday service scheduled from mid-April through the summer as well as certain periods in the fall. Daily flights will be available to meet the high travel demand from mid-December 2023 to early January 2024.
Providing service out of Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Spirit Airlines offers daily nonstop service to St. Croix.
St. Croix is known not only for its historical sites, including forts, monuments, ruins and architecture, but also for its rugged beauty, botanical gardens and world-class beaches. Buck Island Reef National Monument is a top attraction for outstanding snorkeling, featuring a unique underwater trail and coral reef ecosystem and Turtle Beach, rated by National Geographic as one of "The World’s Most Beautiful Beaches."
