How This Site Works:
Our new website is logically organized into three main sections: Before You
Fly Down, When You First Arrive, and While You're Here. When
you click any of those section names in the "Navigation Bars" at the left or at
the top of each page, you're taken to the main page for that section (that's
where you are). Scroll well down this page and you'll see the titles of
all the articles in this section of our site, with some of the copy. (This
particular section has none . . . but it will. "Before You Fly Down" has
many.) Click to access articles of interest. We're constantly adding new
articles, so check often. Most recently edited articles are always listed first.

AIRPORT SECURITY / PASSPORTS:
Since 9/11, airport security has much tougher and a Passport will make your trip
less grueling, particularly on the return through U. S. Customs / Immigration.
In fact, passports will be required for re-entry to the USA from the
Caribbean effective after 1/7/07.
Allow at
least two hours in the airport, preferably three hours, when leaving the
U. S. for security before your flight time. In your carry-on baggage, don't put
anything that security agents may find problematic -- including nail clippers
and small scissors since they will be confiscated. Carry on only what you really
need; check all other baggage. Report any remotely suspicious activity you see
anywhere IMMEDIATELY. You may also want to look under your seat; if you see
anything there that doesn't belong there, give it to a flight attendant before
the plane leaves the ground.
IF YOU ARE
ARRIVING BY SHIP, explicitly follow the instructions of your ship's crew.
