Boarding. Scheduled to leave at 1140. Don't think we can get boarded by then. Full fllight. Two hour delay if we leave by 1150. But we will have a great time if we ever get left.

Well I'm guessing you've left! You'll be landing as I'm on my way home from work. Life is about to get much, much better.....

What I would give to be delayed a few hours on my way to STJ right now versus being at work! Sigh... SO JEALOUS regardless! :D

Y'all have a GREAT time, and please post a trip report when y'all get back to the real world!

We were delayed a couple of hours last year. You don't want to lose any vacation time, but it's all good when you get there! 8)

Here's the good news:

They discovered that there was something wrong with the plane BEFORE it was in the air :)

I agree with all comments Just real frustrating that we got uo early to catch the early flight nd we left 10 minutes later than second flight.

But extremely happy we didn't fly on a plane with problems.

We did make the. 5 o'clock car ferry and to our villa before dark. B.

Great view. Post report when I get back and have time to post pics

Here's my theory when I fly, which is quite often...if they hold up a plane for whatever reason, I'm sill alive to tell about it.

Terry I agree. I was just so ready to get to St John. And today more than made up for a little delay!!!

Francis has clear snorkeling today. Maho was a little murky. But think we enjoyed Maho better.
