Proposed BVI Itinerary 2022

The Government of the British Virgin Islands has strict guidelines for
anyone entering their country. They shut down entry into the BVIs to
visitors for more than a year, and re-opened late last year. It is with
an abundance of caution that we ask you to take a conservative approach
to the following Covid-19 protocol.


We managed to get 3 crews to St. Thomas under similar restrictions
last year, but we need everyones cooperation this year!

Please read the protocols all the way through…..
Let me know if you have questions!

Pre-trip Two weeks from Covid Testing Days
Tues Feb 22 We should each consider limiting exposure to others, socially distancing
and wearing masks, when appropriate. Anyone that tests positive for Covid-19
on Wed March 9th may be subject to 14 day quarantine upon arrival in the
British Virgin Islands.

Pre-Trip Covid-19 Test Day- Last day to Cancel for any Reason with our Travel
Tue Mar 8 Insurance Company. Rapid Covid test should be taken today- This test is to verify
that all crew members are Covid-free. This can be a BinaxNow Home Test. (Or
similar) This test doesn’t count towards entry into the BVI, but let’s us know if
there is a Covid concern among our crew. If anyone tests Positive for Covid, they
should re-test immediately. If still testing positive, let Andy know immediately so we
can figure out our next option and/or notify the Travel Insurance Company to get the
correct procedures to qualify for an insurance claim on the policies we bought.


Pre-Trip 3 pm or later, Covid-19 Test (If taken within 48 hours of arrival,
Wed Mar 9 testing upon arrival is not required) This should be a BinaxNow AG
Tele-Health Covid-19 test. (Or something similar) Assuming a negative test result,
you are good to go for this trip! Download the negative results on your computer or
phone and/or print a paper copy of the test result. If you test positive, you should
re-test. If still positive, do not board the airplane to the BVIs. You will be tested
upon arrive in the BVIs, If you test positive there, you will be subject to quarantine
