Carriers that fly into Honduras are American Airlines (making connections through Miami), Continental (connecting through Houston) Delta (connecting through Atlanta) and TACA Airlines with several U.S. departure cities, including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Miami and New York. Travellers coming from Europe (or other areas outside the USA) will most likely come through Miami on their way to San Pedro Sula, Honduras.

Once you arrive in Honduras at either San Pedro Sula, La Ceiba or Roatan, you will need to take a domestic flight to the island of Guanaja. There are several domestic carriers, however, all these flights originate in La Ceiba. So, if you arrive at a different entry point you will need to take a domestic flight to La Ceiba prior to any flight to the island of Guanaja.

The cost for one-way flights between most Honduran cities or out to the islands is about $60 - $70 US dollars (From San Pedro Sula to La Ceiba then on to Guanaja is about $140). There is little advantage to buying round-trip tickets as round-trip is only sightly less than double the 1-way fare, and for Guanaja it limits your options for departure. If your travel agent cannot book these domestic flights, WPI Reservations can arrange to have your tickets waiting for you on arrival in Honduras.

U.S., Canadian and most western European citizens do not require any visa for visits less than 90 days. Visitors will need a valid passport and a return tickets.

There are no official health requirements for travel in Honduras. However, routine vaccinations for diphtheria and tetanus should be current. Malaria and Dengue Fever are known in some regions so you may want to ask your doctor about these as well as the Hepatitis vaccine.

Even though these diseases may be rare, be alert upon your return to the states, and if you come down with an illness similar to the flu go to the doctor immediately to be tested for these tropical diseases. Always tell your care provider that you have travelled to an area known for Malaria and Dengue Fever.
