Getting Around the Islands
Travel between islands is mainly by Air Vanuatu. The main domestic routes (Tanna, Santo, Port Vila) are serviced by a 72-seat aircraft, and sometimes by a smaller 18-seater Twin Otter. Tanna and Santo flights to/ from Port Vila operate daily except Thursdays (current schedule). Flights to Tanna are often heavily booked so booking well in advance is recommended!
Smaller islands are accessed by 18-seater Twin Otter aircraft (regular flights) and Islander aircraft via air charter companies (8-seater, generally private hire). Flights to smaller islands can be irregular depending on weather or operating conditions. Be flexible, and allow for possible schedule changes.
We recommend you keep a buffer day (or two) between domestic and international flights.
There are limited luggage allowances on all flights so pack light or store your extra luggage at your accommodation, or at our office (free-of-charge for booked guests). Excess baggage is available for pre-purchase on most flights, just advise our friendly team when you book.
Charter flights give you access to more remote islands, but you’ll usually need to cover the full charter cost. While coastal shipping is also an option, just remember the schedules can vary according to weather conditions and operational factors.
