The Vieques airport does not accept jet aircraft so most of the flights from Vieques generally are to the airports of the main island of Puerto Rico such as Luis Muñoz Marin in San Juan, the Isla Grande Airport and the very nearby airport of the municipality of Fajardo. Air Ambulances to Puerto Rico from Vieques are also available.

Ever since the exit of the United States Navy from the island in 2003 the airport has become an even more important part of the economy of Vieques since most of the island revenue is derived from tourism.
