It’s now even easier to get to Petit St Vincent
For years the Caribbean gem of Petit St Vincent has been known as being âworth the journeyââ¦and that journey has just become much easier!{{more}} The launch of a new flight service dedicated to guests of Petit St Vincent by Mustique Airways, flying from Barbados to Union Island on 1st November 2012, will transform the journey to the recently renovated, secluded island paradise, much to guestsâ delight.
From November, guests who wish the PSV booking office to arrange their âlast mileâ travel to PSV on the Barbados-Union-Barbados route will be booked on flights specifically scheduled by Mustique Airways for PSV guests.
Mustique Airways, which is the oldest airline operating in the Grenadines, will service the Barbados-Union-Barbados run daily, as needed, with twin engine aircraft (6-passenger Norman Islanders and 4-passenger Rockwell Aero Commanders). These planes will ensure that guestsâ flight experience will be private, because only their group or other PSV guests will be travelling.
More importantly, the new flights will wait for late-arriving aircraft â avoiding missed connections and unwanted stopovers to or from Petit St Vincent!
Finally, if take-off is delayed until after Union Island airport closes at sunset, the flight can alternatively land at the lighted Canouan airport, still just a 45 minute boat ride away from Petit St Vincent.
PSV has negotiated a flat-rate charge of $600 per person for the round trip Barbados-Union-Barbados.
Nightly rates at Petit St Vincent start from US$1,050 + 10% VAT and 10% service charge per cottage, based on 2 sharing, including three meals per day, all non-alcoholic beverages, early morning coffee and afternoon tea, room service and use of all non-motorized water sports and facilities on the island.
British Airways and Virgin Atlantic fly to Barbados direct from London Gatwick. From Barbados, guests fly to Union Island and from there take a short boat ride to Petit St Vincent.
