Isla Grande Airport
Culebra, Puerto Rico

Greetings! I am in the process of making our air reservations and I cannot seem to find out how far it is to Isla Grande Airport from SJU and what is the taxi cost? I understand from Air Flamenco that the last flight out of Isla Grande to Culebra is 4:30 pm and the only three flights out of Culebra to Isla Grande 7a, 330p and 515p. I really need help before I book our flights to SJU. Thank you all for your experienced help! Donna

a friend reported once it's about 10-15 minutes and about 10-15 dollars, but I've always gone through SJU/Munoz.

If traffic conditions are light, the run from one airport to the other is 15 minutes..it can get a bit nastier during rush hours. It's a fixed fare of $15, plus 50 cents per bag. A few months ago, I had a driver change the fare on me, by scratching out the original fare on the chit the airport dispatchers had given me. ANd I was so tired and dazed, he got away with it!

Hmmm, we're booked on an 11:30 AM flight from Culebra to Isla Grande on a Wednesday in April. Maybe they only offer it certain days of the week.

you'll be fine, you'll get there.

leaving Culebra do be prompt, going from the "big island" it's more lax and prepare to wait a bit.

but yes, they run on an "on demand" service that more or less synchs up with their trips - that's what I think...

It's about a 15-20 minutes ride from Isla Grande to the SJU airport.

When booking your flight from Culebra to head back, I would consider taking the second to the last flight out. Call me nervous nelly, but after our flight was delayed an hour and despite the guy at the counter saying that he would help us secure a taxi when we arrived at Isla Grande, none was there. Thankfully, there were people there to help us but the wait was agonizing as the minutes ticked on...we made it to the airport in time to catch our flight by 15 minutes!
