What type of transportation is used?
Inter-island transportation is provided by the Falkland Islands Government Air Services (FIGAS). FIGAS operates 8-seater Britten Norman Islander aircraft from the Stanley airport and between the various islands. The aircraft land on grass strips or beaches on the islands. The flying is relatively low, and offers stunning views of the Falkland archipelago. Due to the small size of the plane, passengers are limited to 14 kg (~30 lbs) of luggage, including carry-ons. There are no fixed schedules for FIGAS; flights are arranged on a day-by-day basis subject to demand. On the islands, you will most often be transported by 4×4 vehicle, as the roads meander over rough terrain–be prepared for a somewhat bumpy ride on your way to see the wildlife! Private vans or cars will transport you to and from the airport and around Stanley.
