Re: Spirit Air

Spirit Airlines blows.....MSP to ORD at 545AM 4.5 hours late. ORD to MSP 2.2 hours late. I could have spent $124 more on Delta and I wished I did. I checked the boards and they were on time. A simple 1 hour flight they cannot get right. I cannot imagine longer flights and connections.

Re: 14 more days

Hi Bobob1916- You mentioned you just mailed a priority package down to STJ, I am contemplating doing so tomorrow for my trip on the 29th but not sure if this will cost more than just checking a bag, would you mind sharing the weight and cost of your package? Did you send it to Connections in Cruz B...

Re: 14 more days

8 days and sent our priority mail box stuffed to the gills this week to our villa owner. First timers here and really looking forward to it. Celebrating my wife's special birthday, all I can say it ends in a zero. We really appreciate reading all of the tips and advice from all of you.

Re: Villa Payment Terms

We are renting through the owner through VRBO in 8 days (YAY!). We put half down and we are paying the second half upon arrival.

Re: 1 night stay in STT

We have a room booked for one night before we leave at the end of Sept. at the BW Emerald Beach. Just looking at the Marriott Frenchman's Reef and it is about the same price. Anyone have any opinions on one over the other? Your help is appreciated.

Minneapolis to STT on Delta was $839 last week on the dates we are going, Sep 22-30, Saturday to Sunday. Today the fare is $369. We used miles so it does not matter for us. But Wow!

For a couple of years now yapta has been powered by kayak. A great marriage in my opinion. We booked in March for end of Sept. travel from MSP for $475 on Delta....it is now up to $840 or so. Have you looked at varying days for departure and returning? Depending on the days of the week, from our lit...

In short, I would recommend doing a bit of research on the route to the ferry before you get there. I think Pia has posted directions here which you should be able to find if you do a search. And that is awesome about Amalie meeting you at the airport! I would definitely pay extra for that over hav...
