How to get to Martinique : Practical information

Practical info on Martinique : How to get there

Plane

Links between Paris and Guadeloupe are provided by three scheduled airlines: Corsair, Air Caraibes and Air France. Online reservation is possible on the websites of all three companies.

Reduced fares are sometimes available when booking months in advance. Passenger seats are divided into several reservation categories and prices may vary with differences as high as double price on the same flight for the same services. This is because the airlines often choose to advertise their flights by selling their first 20 seats at an extremely attractive price. Once this quota has been filled, fares will increase according to the number of seats available. In this way, the earlier you book, the more chances you have of paying a reasonable fare.

Boat

An original and adventurous way to cross the Atlantic, becoming more and more popular each year with adventurers who don’t mind considering the crossing itself an integral part of their travel, the whole in an atmosphere of charm and adventure: a different concept than those luxurious cruises. The only drawback is that it is quite more expensive than taking the plane. This, of course, remains justified, as you are catered and accommodated and all your needs are attended to during the 10-12 days of your stay on board. Whatever the case, forget the time difference, and marvel at the wonders of the Atlantic Ocean during this original adventure.
