Vuelo en avioneta
Short hops in light aircraft between San Juan or Ceiba and the islands of Vieques and Culebra, taking roughly 10 to 30 minutes depending on the origin. They cost more than the ferry and in exchange they run on time and skip the drive to Ceiba. Baggage is weight limited and sometimes they weigh you too, which is part of the deal.
Example
If your bio bay plan depends on reaching Vieques that same day, the small plane is the insurance the ferry does not provide.

Frequently asked questions
How much luggage can I bring?
Little, and it is measured by weight rather than pieces. Each operator sets its own limit and charges for excess, so check first.
Are cancellations common?
Weather decides, especially with afternoon storms. Even so they are more reliable than counting on a ferry seat in high season.
