American Express

My main credit card is AMEX but I was wondering if many places on STJ accepted it or should I just leave it home? We always bring 2 different cards so that if something happens to one, we still have a back up. Usually it's 2 VISAs....

Just wonderin'

We bring both Amex and Visa and have found that most restaurants and about 50% of the retailers that accept CC's will take Amex. Likewise, most of the car rental agencies will accept Amex -- which is a big plus since most have very good rental car insurance coverage.

Hope this helps.

Some place take it and some don't. We take both the AMEX and Mastercard and then we're covered.

I agree with Eric, I like the car to be on the Am Ex because of the insurance benefits, also. I think alot of places accepted it, but we bring a VISA also.
