AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
There is no true 'connection' process at UVF — plan on collecting your bags, clearing customs, and rechecking in as if starting a new trip.
Interisland flights on small turboprops (to Barbados, Martinique, or other OECS islands) run infrequently, so missing one can mean a full day's delay.
Arrive at the terminal well before your flight since check-in counters close early and there's minimal staff to expedite late passengers.
Keep all documents (passport, customs forms) easily accessible since immigration and customs lines can back up when multiple wide-body flights land close together.
Don't count on airline rebooking desks being staffed outside of the handful of daily wide-body arrival windows.

Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
There is only one terminal building, so all connecting passengers simply walk from the arrivals hall to the departures side on foot. There is no train, shuttle, or airside transfer corridor — passengers who arrive on an international flight must generally clear immigration and customs, collect bags, and re-check in before going through security again for their next flight.
