Cheap flights to Roatan Island from $183

Flights to Roatan, Honduras from the United States range from about 2.5h-35h. Your flight will be on the longer end of the spectrum if you’re departing from a city out of the north and that has at least two stopovers. There is only one airport in the U.S. that provides direct flights to Roatan, which is represented on the smaller end of the range, so even if you’re flying from an airport in the south but do not have a direct flight, you can expect your flight time to be at least a few hours due to time spent making a stopover.

You can book direct flights to Roatan from Miami, which offers daily direct flights serviced by American Airlines. If you’re departing from a city other than Miami, you are sure to make at least one stopover en route to Roatan. To reduce the number of stopovers you make, try to fly with an airline that regularly flies into Roatan, such as Avianca, Copa Airlines, TACA, United, and American Airlines. This may help to reduce the number of stopovers you experience to one, as opposed to two or three. You can expect to make stopovers in cities like Miami, San Salvador, Managua, and San Pedro Sula, which are common for this route.

When your destination is Roatan, you’ll fly into Juan Manuel Galvez Airport (RTB), which is about 1 mile southeast of Roatan’s capital and largest city, Coxen Hole. There are no public transportation options from the airport, so you may be limited on how to reach your accommodations. One popular option is to take a taxi, which will cost about $6-$8 to downtown Coxen Hole, or if you’re staying elsewhere, about $20 to the West End, $20 to French Harbour, and $15 to Sandy Bay. Oftentimes, your hotel or resort will have shuttle ride services to and from the airport, so be sure to check with them first.
