This page contains important information for guests travelling through Barbados on their way to and from Mustique.

Please note, only passengers that are fully vaccinated can travel on Mustique operated flights. If you are not vaccinated, please contact our Travel team to arrange a private charter flight.

Guests have two options before you start this process. You can complete these forms yourself for all members of your travelling party, in which case you should download this Cheat Sheet to guide you through. Or you can make use of our Concierge Travel Service and one of our team will take care of everything for you.

Pre-Travel

Before you set off for Mustique you need to do the following:

  • Book a Rapid Antigen test at an accredited/certified laboratory within 24 hours of your date of departure or a Covid-19 PCR test at an accredited/certified laboratory within 3 days/72 hours of your date of departure – please note Barbados does not accept self administered home tests.
  • Once you have your negative test result, print two copies of your certificate. You will need to travel with these.
  • N.B Children under five do not need to be tested.
  • Within 3 days of your departure you will need to complete:
  • Print a copy of each of these and travel with them.
  • Please email pcrresults@mustique.vc a copy of the negative PCR OR Antigen test results, the Barbados Pre-Arrival Registration Confirmation Email and the Vincy Pre-Arrival Travel Form 24 hours prior to travel so we can arrange for pre-clearance into the country.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

  • When completing the Vincy Pre-Arrival form there is a glitch in the system that changes you answer from ‘Yes’ to ‘No’ when asked if you are in possession of a negative covid test. The authorities are aware of such issue and it would not affect your travels.

Your journey

  • Surgical masks are mandatory in all local airports and on the flights to and from Mustique, for all passengers 2 years old and older.
  • When you land in Barbados, you will need to clear both the Covid temperature checks and Customs, before awaiting your transfer to Mustique.

You may NOT go to any social gatherings, public bars, Basil’s or the shops in Lovell Village. You must NOT invite anyone into your bubble for social reasons.

Onward travel

Travel Restrictions are still in place across the globe, so the first point of reference for any traveller is to check the restrictions where you are travelling onto. There may well be protocols that all guests need to adhere to and the Mustique Company bears no responsibility for these protocols.

NB – The Barbados Ministry of Health and Wellness reserves the right to require testing/retesting of any traveler regardless of documentation presented or any other requirement, obligation or condition associated with their assigned risk category.
