So they found a way to keep those skinny cows off the runway?
Also, “international”? I wonder what would be the maximum range of the small planes that can be accommodated there and if Cape Air would offer service from San Juan? (might not be enough demand)
They are also improving the “airport” on Virgin Gorda and Cape Air has already announced that they will be flying there. That’s good news – gives the bucket of bolts that Air Sunshine flies there some competition. Never heard a bad thing about Cape Air.

I thought the Virgin Gorda airport had closed? I hope Anegada "International" doesn't change that place!

I was excited to hear the VG Cape Air news too. We flew charter in Feb to VG and watched many frustrated Air Sunshine passengers at the counter and couldn't help thinking "thank goodness we didn't use them"

Anyway, Cape Air servicing VG makes a VG and STJ joint trip a really possibility for us.

We flew Air Sunshine without any problems. They didn't have an attendant at STT, but you call the 1-800 number provided and follow directions.

Good news if we can get those $30 airfares to Beef Island back in place. I'd love to see service from SJU for less than $250.
