I just checked and our fare down on AA has dropped $8. Our United flight back is up $87.
We bought as soon as United showed availability 300 days out. They ended up canceling our flight down, but it was mid-October and they usually don't run their direct flights that early. We got that flight refunded (we book one-way flights) and rebooked AA. We're in October 16 and out November 14.
We're looking forward to Cat fight. Not certain who we'll have on the boat with the busy season starting up. Debbie & Christine will be back on our boat. With any luck we'll get Capt. Jay over to Jost after work on that Friday. It would be great to get Kimber back

So jealous of all you folks who can do this so cheaply. We are extremely lucky if we can get there under a grand each...not to mention I have no vacation time....2 weeks sailing in Greece/ Turkey in Sept agsin and I'm tapped out for 2015.... Can't wait til I'm done with this pain in butt called working full time. .....I'll be thinking of all of you in October....March 2016 til I see my BVI paradise and family again... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" />

51 days for us, arriving October 16 on AA. We'll be in Great Harbor Friday before Cat Fight with our one-legged cat. We got our favorite United direct flight home on November 14.

tradewinds said: We arrive on the 22nd, staying at CRC for a few nights, and then sleeping aboard Galeaux on the 25th before we head out. We'll be in Great Harbour on Friday, probably after stopping at the B-Line. Brian, Kris, "her" Nick, and the rest of the JVD "land gang" will head over to Diamond Cay and will wait for a dinghy lift to B-Line, Chris!

Oooh, what day is B-Line day? We're picking up crew on St. Thomas before cat fight, but we could get moving early Friday for Diamond Cay.

Tradewinds, excellent. That could work for us with Debbie being a morning girl; we plan on picking her up early at the marina on St. Thomas on our way back from the SVI. With check in at Great Harbor, we'll shoot for early afternoon Friday at B-Line. With any luck, Capt. Jay can hit the last ferry Friday and sail with us on Saturday.
