Transworld Jets Insider Tip

Summer weekend slots at MVY can be tight. For maximum flexibility, arrive Thursday or leave Monday to avoid the Saturday crush. Nantucket (ACK) just 23 nautical miles east is an excellent alternative with shorter ground transfer for Edgartown or Chappaquiddick destinations. Our brokers coordinate with island FBOs to ensure seamless black-car transfers to Chilmark, Menemsha, or Oak Bluffs.
