Can anyone tell me how much they charge to hold your luggage @ Connections for those few hours between villa check-out time and the walk of woe?

Thanks.

Hi,

I'm pretty sure it was ~$3 per bag. Works great.

Yes, $3.00 per bag. Super easy.

We did it in August. There's a little old lady on the island who sews/knits little luggage tags. The Connections folks give them out as long as you promise to write her a postcard from your home town.

Whenever my bag comes off a carousel in PHL or RDU or wherever I am...I see my little tag from Connections and smile.

Thanks, everyone! That's definitely what we're gonna do!

mcdomzal - I don't know which car rental place you are using but Courtesy let us do it when we needed to once and then drove us to the ferry when we went back to get our bags. They didn't charge us anything. I think SO tipped them but the employee that gave us the ride, but that was a few trips ago so I can't be positive on that.

Interesting....We're using Sutton. We've used them twice before. Guess it couldn't hurt to ask....

When we were at Orion's Hill last June, we picked up our car at Conrad's and Orion's owner met us there ane walked down to Connections with bro-in-law to pick up 2 heavy boxes before we followed him up to the villa. So reasonable in price and definitely worth shipping ahead for your snorkel gear and "got to have extras!"

Shipping things back home

Is Connections open on Saturday to UPS/FedEx things back home? For that matter, is the USPS office in Cruz Bay open Saturday morning?
