Just returned from great trip but travel issues were at their height and cost us!
Day 7: headed back to base. Moorings were great, docked and got ready to head to airport. Wait - more covid tests at the base - this time $630 for this bs. What a government money grab joke!

Sounds like a great trip except for the extra travel expense. Glad you enjoyed! I am unfortunately experiencing the same issues with Cape Air. Very frustrating. My reasons for traveling to the US do not leave me many timing options for delays so each screw up is about $2k in charter fees. Why are your costs so high to test? The emed tests are only $25/each and have been recommended many times. Will your travel insurance help you with hotels? I can assure you that Cape Air will not help in any way. Also, that is not really a government money grab if you're using a private service that charges those fees. I don't think either BVI or USVI govt. sees any revenue from the testing requirements. Certainly not the BVI as that test is/was a USVI requirement.
