Ok Glenn I am with you up until the last sentence (and yes I think I was getting confused with having to check in at the ferry dock and then again at the airport) but now it makes sense! Since the USVI and the US have different duty and agricultural regulations are these being taken care of at the STT airport so that no further declarations or inspections are required when we hit the mainland?

Thanks,
The other Rick!

Life involves risks, take some prudent ones (NOT with the BVI ferries)!
