And you always stay in a charming boutique hotel.

There are direct flights into the capital of St. John’s from most major Canadian cities, with the most frequent from Toronto, Montreal and Halifax. St. John’s airport can often be fog-bound, so it is important to keep your flight arrangements flexible. 

Medical travel insurance is required for non-Canadian residents. Your insurance plan should include full medical coverage, emergency evacuation and emergency repatriation.

We also highly recommend travel interruption insurance
