How to get there


From the US
From the East Coast and Chicago:
- Air Jamaica flies direct to Grenada from JFK, arriving in Grenada in time for the Osprey to Carriacou.
- Air Jamaica also has good connections to Grenada via Montego Bay from Boston, NY, Newark, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Atlanta, Chicago and Ft. Lauderdale. 
- US Air direct service has been cut: At present USAir offers a code-sharing connection via Barbados.

From just about anywhere in the US:
American Airlines has connections to Grenada via Miami or San Juan, Puerto Rico, but should only be used if you’re collecting or using miles as the schedule guarantees your trip will involve an overnight stay in Grenada.

Other alternatives:
One way to go is via Barbados where you can catch a flight to Grenada.
    Alternatively, our rental agent (see how to book) can charter you a flight from Barbados direct to Carriacou.
