Re: Flight Cost Anxiety Woes
Jim I can certainly understand your frustration with the prices for flying out of Philly. Of the 3 airports we monitor (PHL, EWR, JFK) PHL is always the highest and usually by a lot. While getting to JFK is a pain we have decided to fly out of there for a trip in September. Hard to beat $317 rt dire...

Re: September Air Travel
I had been watching the Jet Blue flights. We are flying down on 9/2 and returning 9/12. Jet Blue has only posted flights through 9/7 since well before Christmas so they weren't offering a return flight. Had to hop on the JFK opportunity while we could. Inuny, any suggestions on parking options or pa...

Re: September Air Travel
So we are excited. Just when we thought our options were fairly limited Delta added a non stop flight out of JFK for our travel date. They also added a non stop return flight. We prefer to fly out of EWR but we couldn't pass this up. RT for $317! Now we have to keep our fingers crossed that the flig...

Re: September Air Travel
PAGirl, unfortunately USAir doesn't run those flights in the low season. The best we can do from PHL gets us in at 9:29PM with a connection in Miami. Right now we will either take Jet Blue out of EWR, depending on price once they post the return flights, or leave the day before, get in at 9:29PM, sp...

Re: Your best St. John packing tip?
If you are checking bags, a few good knives for food prep. The knives in most villas have seen better days.

Re: September Air Travel
I am waiting to see Jet Blue's schedule. They have posted the 9/2 flights to STT but not the return yet (9/12). There is a longish layover in SJU but we would get in at either 3:00 or 4:00PM, depending on the connecting flight we take from SJU, which isn't ideal but far better than 9PM. I have never...

Re: September Air Travel
We aren't adverse to JFK and have flown from there several times but on our preferred travel day, 9/2, they don't have any non stop flights and the flights leaving have the same issues with connections. We will figure something out. Mostly just wanted to vent and hoped maybe someone might have some ...

September Air Travel
We are planning a trip in early September. We usually travel in June so this is new for us. I have been tracking flights/prices since our timeframe became available departing from either EWR or PHL. 2 weeks ago all of the reasonable connecting flights were discontinued. Now our only choices are to t...

Re: End of an era on St. John (Palm Tree Charters sold)
I wholeheartedly agree. We have spent several enjoyable trips in the company of Captain John and I know he will be missed by many here on the forum. To John, we pray that your health issues are resolved. To the new owners, best of luck in your new venture.

When I saw that last turtle shot all I could think of was the turtles in Finding Nemo. "Give me some fin, Dude."
Great trip report.

New ticker Yay!
We found a place to stay for our trip in February so I officially created a new ticker. Still have to book flights. We will be staying at Rendezvous Cottage. Got something to look forward to again!

Re: Villa help
Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately most don't have availability during the week we want to visit (Feb 7-14). I would have loved to go back to St John Guest Suites but it looks like those suites are no longer quite as secret. Congratulations VIOL member Betty :D I am liking the listing for Hap...
