This year, an escape to a tropical paradise is more tempting than ever. With winter approaching and the universal desire for a getaway growing, Tradewind Aviation collaborated with several of its partners in St. Barths to create 10 safe, stress-free, and luxurious vacation packages tailor-made for an idyllic island retreat.
St. Barths officially reopened to tourists on June 22, 2020, and is taking the utmost precautions to keep residents and visitors safe. Upon arrival, individuals 11 years of age and older are required to show a negative PCR COVID-19 test that was administered within the previous 72 hours. Additionally, anyone staying longer than seven days must take an additional test on the eighth day of their trip.
Like St. Barths, the health and safety of our guests is Tradewind’s top priority. Private jet travel provides a secure, comfortable, and crowd-free way to travel. All of our aircraft are uniquely positioned to offer a best-in-class private experience from your home to your awaiting St. Barths resort.
The Tradewind travel experience begins with a luxury private jet charter from anywhere in the U.S. to San Juan, Puerto Rico. Upon arrival at the private jet terminal in San Juan, guests will board the awaiting Tradewind Pilatus PC-12 for a seamless transfer to St. Barths. Since Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory, there’s no need to go through immigration or customs, limiting outside contact even further. (When the time comes to leave St. Barths, the Pilatus will clear immigration and customs at the island’s private jet terminal before boarding guests and returning them to the U.S.)
For each private-to-private experience booked, guests will receive complimentary round-trip ground transportation, an onboard welcome amenity kit, and a 10% discount on a future trip with Tradewind. From there, it’s choose your own adventure — here is what each of our luxury partners is adding to the package.
