Oh to be a Carry On Only type traveler....

I don't know if I could be converted. It might take a complete reprogramming of my brain. I will think about it though.

Car ferry.....I see.....interesting. Thanks for the scoop!

We have a late flight into St Thomas and just in case our luggage doesn't make the connection with us I'm wondering if the airlines (American in our case) will send it over to St. John. I highly doubt they would but just thought I'd check with those who know for sure. I'm not sure I'd trust them to ...

Yes, looks like we are going from jet to prop service. I think the gates for the prop planes may be on a different level.

Has anyone stayed at the San Juan airport hotel? or at a hotel near the Saint Thomas airport? Any recommendations?

We're flying down in mid October to spend a week in St. John. We didn't have much choice in our routing and have a 45 minute connection time in San Juan. We're on American Airlines coming in from Chicago and scheduled to arrive in San Juan at 7:55pm and out at 8:40pm (also on American)to St. Thomas....
