TravelTalkOnline Forums Thread Like Summary - Running the gauntlet from Road Town to STT

If I catch a 7:30 am ferry on a Wednesday out of RT, do you think I could make an 11:45 am flight over at STT? I keep going back and forth on this thinking 4 hours should be enough but then I take into account Murphy's Law. I can use miles for that flight but I don't want to book that return flight if I need a later one. Any insights, personal anecdotes, jokes are welcome!

7:30 ferry would put you at the airport at 9 am if things go perfect. Call it 10 when things are not so perfect. Lines are short before 11am. You will be fine.

AA has a 90-minute check in cutoff at STT. You cannot check bags or get a boarding pass onsite after that. We check in online and mostly do carryon only.

With carryon only, Global Entry, No agricultural exceptions (no food), TSA Pre-check, we get to our gate in less than an hour. AA starts boarding 60 minutes before departure and will leave early.

And if you fly AA they will cut you off two hours before your flight..I say a definite "no".I spend my last night on STT at The Emerald Beach Resort at the end of the runway and have a nice relaxing dinner in Frenchtown..no stress..
