The Westin St. John

Just in time for the arrival of the freezing cold winter weather here in New England, JetBlue and the US Virgin Islands have announced the start of direct service from Boston to St. Thomas.  The Northbound flights will connect via San Juan, Puerto Rico, while the Southbound flights are direct.  At this time, the service will run five times per week.

The US Virgin Islands are a fabulous destination for couples and families.  Each of the islands are unique, but they all have wonderful weather, fabulous culture, and beautiful resorts in common.  Guests to the US Virgin Islands traveling from the United States do not need a passport – making the trip so easy!

If you are traveling to the US Virgin Islands, you have your choice of many wonderful properties to choose from – from luxury resorts to all-inclusives, to family resorts and everything in between.  The Westin St. John Resort and Villas , pictured here, is one option.  The resort offers a kids’ club, and is adjacent to the Virgin Islands National Forest.  To get to St. John, you’ll need to take a ferry from St. Thomas – it’s offered several times per day.
