Re: 1st time staying on STT

You will love Sapphire Beach. I have never stayed there but love to visit each year when we come down to Bluebeard's Castle. Anyway, in my opinion you should reserve your car in advance, especially since that is high season. You can get your Budget car at the airport. They are fine to rent from but ...

Re: Spirit Airlines: The Difference Is The Indifference

Wow, that was very interesting reading. Since I have never flown Spirit (and never will) did you really save that much on your tickets? I just bought our tickets to STT for February and paid a total of $1,100.00 flying United and AA from IAD; wanted to fly United both ways (non-stop) but didn't want...

Re: Discount Car Rental STT

We actually rented from them for some time but when the ownership changed hands we found the cars to be in poor shape also. As already stated, they are pretty beat up outside as well as inside. We don't use them anymore.

Re: Vendor's Plaza location

Nancy, you are correct. There is a such a place there at Havensight. We passed it several times but never stopped to take a look since we are always in a car. There weren't many vendors set up last year but maybe because it's new. It's like right across from Wendy's there.

Re: marine weather patterns / seasons

Ok, for my 2 cents...I have been both in February (regularly since 1996) and October (every couple of years). For us February is perfect; warm days and warm nights and not really a lot of rain; October seems much hotter and back in 2007 it rained from Wednesday thru to Saturday when we left. That wa...

Re: Charlotte Amalie Shops

If you are talking about downtown, the stores usually open at 9:00 a.m. and close at 5:00 p.m. If there are any cruise ships in port on Sunday they will close at noon. I'm not positive, and I'm sure someone will correct me, but if there are no cruise ships on Sunday, the stores downtown (or the majo...

Re: Our JetBlue Nightmare

That story is just disgusting and I feel so sorry for you. You need to write to the President of Jet Blue and tell him just what you told all of us. Now that may seem stupid but it will make you feel better and you never know, something may come of it. Now that I am getting older I don't take the cr...

Re: United Direct Flights: Question....

We have direct flights from IAD to STT in February both there and back. We have never had a direct flight back; I actually never knew they offered it. We're very excited about that and, like you, we hope it isn't changed since it does tend to be more expensive. They have already changed the times of...

cell phone use on STT

I just switched from Verizon to AT&T; I remember seeing that AT&T has towers in the USVI...that said, will it cost me to text and/or call on my cell phone while on STT or does that depend upon my type of plan that I have? Thanks for any advice you can lend.

That has to be the best trip report I have ever seen! You should be a reporter. It was very impressive.
