Fly out, sail back
Our popular Fly+Sail round trip gives you the chance to experience both Skybus and Scillonian in a single break: fly out to the Isles of Scilly, then sail back to the mainland. Flying out lets you spend more time on the islands, and see the islands from the air. Sailing back into Penzance is a relaxed way to end your trip, looking out for sea life and enjoying the views of the Cornish coast.
And because we operate both services, it couldn’t be easier. Simply park in Penzance – or arrive by train – and meet our perfectly-timed transfer to your outward flight. And when you get back to the mainland, you’re already in the right place to continue your journey home. The only dilemma is: how will you spend those extra hours on Scilly?
