Back on Oct. 21st, AA from San Juan to STT, we took only carry on bags so we could go right to the taxi to Red Hook.
Since we were first in line, we had to wait 30 minutes for the checked baggage people to arrive so they could ride in the van with us!!!
Who knew? :roll:

Full throttle pull out to go around again! I...

Just a few weeks ago I had a "just expired" drivers licence & my original birth certificate with no raised seal and was able to visit the BVI's and get thru STT on the way back to Texas. Starting in January '07 you will need a passport to the USVI, so I have heard. Got my new passport ...
