Why book domestic flights in
the Caribbean?
You might ordinarily associate island-hopping in the Caribbean with boats and ferries. But, island hopping by air is also a great choice, especially when you're travelling from country to country. Not only are flights around the Caribbean the quickest way to travel, but it's also surprisingly cheap, particularly when flying between lesser-known airports.
A ferry ride between the neighbouring countries of Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico will take around 13 hours by ferry. Whereas, by plane, it'll only take one hour.

FAQs
Do I need a passport for flights around the Caribbean?
Yes, if you're travelling from one Caribbean country to another, you'll need a passport to fly. However, if you're travelling domestically within one Caribbean country, you might be able to travel with another form of photo ID. It will depend on the entry regulations for each Caribbean country. However, if you're an international traveller, it's easier and more convenient to use your passport whenever flying around the Caribbean.
How early do I need to arrive for domestic flights in Colombia?
Although it differs from airline to airline, check-in deadlines are usually 45–60 minutes before scheduled flight departure time. This means you should arrive at the airport at least two hours before your flight is scheduled to depart.
