Smile Re: Ride from FL to Turks

yes They do fly. I am Aware but there would be just the few of us and not so high as a plane. I also feel like it will be less air time too.

seaplanes don't fly as high as a plane, and you feel they have less airtime than a jet?

This is ridiculous. This is a troll

I’m pretty sure carnival or royal carib stops here on there 5 or 6 night cruises, but you would have seriously lucky to time that up right. I hate to break it to you but you don’t like risks, take the jet not the boat.

Re: Ride from FL to Turks

Carnival. Holland America Princess, Azura, P&O and others stop at Grand Turk. You can make arrangements to come in on one ship and go back on another. It's unusual but people on Island do it.



What Island are you going to? There are 80 something Islands and Cays in the Turks and Caicos Islands. Grand Turk and Providenciales are the two most popular and populated ones. Grand Turk is 82 miles or 20 minutes by plane away from Provo. You could charter a boat between GT and Provo but it won't be cheap. Flights are about $80 round trip between the two

Post Re: Ride from FL to Turks

Hello- I am also looking for transport for two (2) from USA (could be FL) to the Turks and Caicos Islands (any island). I will ferry myself to Provo if needed. We don't fly. I understand the voyage could be 1-3 weeks depending on the weather. Is a cruise ship our only option? Will anyone quote a USA-Turks charter?
