Thorsten, fine if you want to vacation on St. Thomas! Right now there are no ferries to/from the USVI. Various signs make me wonder if the BVI is freaked out about their finances (not without reason). The airport was in poor financial shape before, so perhaps it is a monopoly thing. Are they collecting cruising fees from the boats they won't allow to leave? They won't let Western Union re-open yet, to keep cash from leaving.
