Fly + Sail
Fly out, sail back
Our popular Fly+ Sail round trip gives you the chance to experience Skybus and the 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 all three services, it couldn’t be easier. Simply park in our Scillonian III car park and ride or 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.

A greater day trip
Any day on the Isles of Scilly is great. But a Fly+Sail ticket gives you a chance to make it that bit greater – with up to twice as much time on the islands. Potentially, that’s double the time to explore: twice as many islands, sights and beaches. And if you’ve never been to St. Martin’s – or are tempted to try snorkelling with seals – the extra time with a Fly+Sail round trip is perfect.
