Frommer's Portable Virgin Islands
Chapter One
Planning Your
Trip to the
Virgin Islands
If you live on the East Coast of the U.S., getting to the
U.S. Virgin Islands is as easy as flying to Florida. If you plan to visit
the B.V.I., you'll probably have to make a transfer in lieu of a direct
flight. If you live elsewhere, you might have to fly to New York and
then transfer to a flight going to the Virgin Islands. Those who reside
in Britain often fly first to Miami or San Juan.
If you're an American citizen, visiting the U.S. Virgin Islands is
relatively easy and hassle free, since it is part of the U.S. territory.
Those from other counties should read "Entry Requirements," later
in this chapter.
A little planning can go a long way. In this chapter, we will give you
all the information you need to know before you go, including how
to get the lowest rates on flights, lodging, and car rentals. We also help
you decide which island(s) to visit and when to go.
