Smart tips before you book
Little details can make a big difference when flying to Anguilla.
Pack light for regional aircraft
AXA regional flights (Tradewind PC-12, Anguilla Air Services) enforce strict limits, typically 50 lbs total per person. One carry-on and a personal item is safest.
Budget 2–3 hours for the SXM ferry transfer
After landing at SXM you'll need to clear customs, grab a taxi to the Marigot ferry dock (about 20–30 min, ~$20–30), buy a ticket ($30 per adult, cash only), and wait for the next ferry. The ride itself is about 25 minutes.
Mid-week departures save money
Tuesday and Wednesday flights into SXM are typically cheaper than weekend travel. In winter, BermudAir's seasonal AnguillAir service from Newark has run on Thursdays and Sundays, both convenient mid-trip days.
Factor in Anguilla's departure tax
Leaving Anguilla by ferry, non-resident adults pay a $28 USD departure tax at Blowing Point ($15 USD for ages 5–11; residents and day-trippers $11 USD). It's collected separately at the port, so budget for it.
Pro Tips for Flying to Anguilla
Insider knowledge to make your journey smoother.
Allow 90+ Minutes at SXM
Give yourself at least 90 minutes between your SXM flight arrival and ferry departure for immigration, baggage, and the taxi to the terminal.
Book Flights Early for Peak Season
December through April is peak season. Book flights 3-6 months ahead for the best rates, especially around Christmas and Easter.
SXM Flights Are Often Cheaper
Flying to St. Maarten typically costs 30-50% less than direct AXA flights. The ferry adds ~$35 each way but you still save overall.
Last Public Ferry Is Around 6 PM
If your SXM flight arrives after 4:30 PM, you may be tight for the last public ferry from Marigot, which is usually around 6:00 PM. Consider a private charter ($150-250) or overnight in St. Maarten.
Pack Light for Small Planes
Direct AXA flights use smaller aircraft with strict baggage limits (often 30-40 lbs). Check your airline's policy before packing.
