Whether you’re flying for work obligations, traveling home for a family event, welcoming guests aboard, or planning a crew change during your Great Loop adventure, getting to and from the boat can sometimes feel like a logistical puzzle. In this episode of the Great Loop Radio podcast, we’re joined by Michael Martin of Great Loop Yacht Sales to talk through practical tips for making travel days easier while Looping. We share strategies for identifying airports near the Great Loop route, including using AGLCA’s interactive Great Loop map to locate airports and plan your travel logistics. We also discuss ways to get from the marina to the terminal, and how a little advance planning can save both time and stress. In addition, we cover how your membership in America’s Great Loop Cruisers’ Association can help along the way through Harbor Hosts who often provide local knowledge—and sometimes even rides to and from the airport—as well as member discounts on rental cars. If air travel is part of your Great Loop plans, this episode is packed with practical advice to help make the process smoother and easier.
