There are two very easy ways to get to Puerto Rico, by cruise ship or by flying. Airlines flying to Puerto Rico include:

• Star Alliance – Air Canada, Continental, United, US Airways
• Oneworld – American, Iberia
• Sky Team – Delta
• Other selected – Virgin Atlantic, various North American and European charters

TIP American Airlines has a significant hub at San Juan. Fares from continental USA to various Caribbean islands mostly travel via San Juan and often allow a stopover here.

UPDATED November 2009 – Continental switch from Sky Team to Star Alliance. No change to advice.
