Excellent!
There are fewer cars than demand on St. John. More licenses for rental car agencies have been issued. This has driven by the post-Irmaria construction boom and conversion of long-term housing rentals to short-term. The other impact of the conversion to short-term housing rentals is lack of housing for service industry workers.
Cheers, RickG

I have been going to BVI and USVI for a long time now and St John especially since Irma is very much pricing out of range and availability for most folks...
