Important Information
Check in / out, normally takes more time than in your home country and patience is needed especially when queues are long. Please remember to re-confirm flights 48 hours in advance, keep a record of your locator number and try to be at the airport one hour before your flight leaves for national flights and two hours for international flights. A passport and a tourist entry / exit card are always required when boarding a plane. Always make sure your baggage is well secured and that the baggage ticket received has the name of your destination printed on it.
 
 

A tip for when you get here:

There is only one airport on Margarita Island - Del Caribe International.  It is divided into two sections, the international and the national. The “national” airport is literally a 300 yard walk from the “international” airport, so the numerous “porters” that will approach you, are not necessarily needed……..unless of course you have a large amount of baggage. Fix a price with them first, otherwise they will try and over charge you, for a short walk.
