How to Travel from Grenada to Albania: Flight Routes
Traveling from Maurice Bishop International Airport (GND) in St. George's to Tirana (TIA) involves connecting through major global aviation hubs. The most reliable and popular routes for citizens of Grenada typically include:
Via London (LHR/LGW): Flying with British Airways or Virgin Atlantic to London, then taking a direct connection to Tirana with carriers like Wizz Air or British Airways. This is often the most direct transatlantic link.
Via Miami (MIA) or New York (JFK): Strategic connections through the United States before heading to European gateways such as Frankfurt (FRA), Rome (FCO), or Istanbul (IST).
Via Toronto (YYZ): Connecting through Canada with Air Canada followed by European regional flights to Tirana.
Important Note: Grenada citizens transiting through the UK, US, or Schengen area should ensure they meet the specific transit visa or travel authorization requirements (such as ETA or ETIAS) for those regions.

Currency and Financial Tips: EC Dollar to Albanian Lek
While you use the Eastern Caribbean Dollar (XCD) at home, you will be using the Albanian Lek (ALL) during your stay. It is important to know that while card payments are common in Tirana's modern malls and upscale hotels, Albania remains a cash-oriented society, especially in local markets, traditional taverns, and rural guesthouses.
We strongly suggest carrying Euros or US Dollars to exchange upon your arrival, as they are the most widely recognized and easily traded foreign currencies in the country. To learn more about secure payment handling and financial tips, please visit our Payment Guidelines page.
