• One of the ways people get around the Falkland Islands is via the local air service, which is called FIGAS (Falkland Islands Government Air Service)

  • FIGAS operates a fleet of Britten-Norman Islander aircraft, which are small two propeller planes – you will need to sit where the pilot tells you for weight distribution and please be aware that you may share your flight with livestock!

  • Your flight time will not be confirmed until the day before your flight, as the schedule is arranged according to passenger and freight demand on any one day, this means it may be an early start but you will know the timings the night before

  • There is also an inter-Island ferry service provided by Workboat Services and more information on their schedule can be found on by visiting www.workboat.co.fk

  • Alternatively, you can travel around the Falkland Islands by vehicle and there are a range of local businesses that provide car rentals, including four-wheel drive

  • Please visit the Falkland Islands Tourist Board website for more information on getting around the Falkland Islands: www.falklandislands.com/visitor-information/getting-around/figas-car-hire-ferry
