private air charters

Has anyone had an experience w/private air charter firms in US/BVIs? I've sent out quote requests to a few but curious about others' experience.
We're looking for a couple of daytrips, Anegada and another (got a suggestion?) island around there (except gorda, tortola and other more common places). I couldn't find any ferry service, so this is the only other route (more $$$$) I can think of. Would appreciate input.

Thanks!!!

340-776-4141 Ace Flight Center in STT -- I have used them over the years for Anegada, photo work, and some down island trips -- always had excellent service.

We used Island Birds last year and were very pleased.

We made reservations w/these guys from Anegada and St. Maarten. Their prices seemed pretty reasonable.

We've used Island Birds many times and always been pleased. A long time ago we used FlyBVI and were happy with them as well. They had a mini-cooler for each row with beer, champagne split and water/soda. Made it kind of fun. Don't have any recent experience though.

Island Birds has a great reputation!! and I was only thinking of my own personal experiences and also the STT airport with the Ace recommendation.

We used Bohlke, based in St Croix, for our day trip from STX to Tortola just a few days ago. We chartered their smallest, a Beech Baron, but they have other aircraft available, too.
