Guidelines for purchasing flights
You are free to depart from the airport of your choosing. The research boat is located on the island of St. Thomas and you will need to book your flight to arrive into the St. Thomas International Airport (airport code: STT). Participants should plan on arriving to the airport by 5:30 pm on the expedition start date. A leader will be waiting for you with a sign at the airport and transport you the 5 minutes to the marina where the boat is located.
The group will be transported back to the airport on the last day of the expedition in the morning, so flights can be purchased to depart anytime on the final expedition day.
If participants wish to extend their stay earlier or later than the expedition dates, that’s no problem at all. Global Treks will pre-arrange a meeting place at the start of the expedition and assist with departures at the end of the trip. All participants should plan to leave the boat by noon of the final expedition day.

They have several options you can review. There are also many other options available online, so we recommend interns take their time and find a plan that fits individual preferences. Please note, while recommended, it is not required to purchase travel insurance.
