Flying Into Key West

Key West (EYW)

If you're not up for the drive down to Key West, you can fly directly into Key West International Airport. American Airlines, Continental, Delta and US Air all fly into Key West and you can catch flights directly into Key West from Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Orlando, Tampa, Naples and Atlanta.

All the major car rental agencies are available at the airport, or you can take the Keys Shuttle - Phone: +1 (305) 289 9997 - if you would rather avoid driving downtown. Not a bad idea, as parking can be a little tricky in many locations around Duval Street.
