5 Tips for Traveling to St. John US Virgin Islands

4/7/2022

The US Virgin Islands is a wonderful place to visit. As a Territory of the United States, American travelers can enjoy the no hassle, no passport necessary, ease of traveling. They can use their favorite airlines such as Delta, American, even Jet Blue and many others. Upon arrival, they don't have to worry about currency exchanges because the US Dollar is used. There are so many conveniences associated with traveling to the US Virgin Islands.

St. John, as one of the smaller US Virgin Islands, is even more secluded than the larger islands because it has no major airport. Thus, the only access to St. John is by sea. Here are some tips for traveling to St. John. If you have already experienced the uniqueness of this hidden gem, then feel free to share some tips of your own. 
  1. Visit the online USVI Travel Portal to stay up to date with requirements for entering the Territory. 
  2. Since St. John can only be accessed by sea, book your ferry ride more than 3 days in advance.
  3. Remember to drive on the left. This is a remnant of our Danish colonial times. But it is all we have ever known. So be careful and stay left. Also while driving, slow down. We have winding roads, steep hills, and wild donkeys. 
  4. Say good morning, good afternoon, and in general be respectful, it will go a long way with the locals and you will truly experience the love in Love City.
  5. Wear sunscreen, be safe and have fun!

5 Ways Love City Car Ferries, Inc. Cares for the Community

September 22, 2021 is the 1st day of fall. As the seasons change, we think of holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas, times to slow down and focus on our loved ones. In the Caribbean, while we may not have intense changes in the seasons, we do experience cooler days and decrease day light, as we welcome the holidays.

Love City Car Ferries, Inc works tirelessly to offer service with a smile to our community. But besides that, for this upcoming season of caring, we would like to share with you 5 ways that we care for our community:
  1. We honor our seniors by providing discounted rides.
  2. We provide free rides to individuals who need health related treatments on St. Thomas, for which the service is not available on St. John, such as dialysis and cancer treatments.
  3. We provide discounted rides to members of the clergy who reside on St. John.
  4. We offer a loyalty program and give free rides and or loyalty perks.
  5. We donate to  nonprofit organizations and philanthropic events.
​
We believe that a community is stronger based on the health of individual families, the camaraderie of citizens, the accountability of government and the generosity of businesses. Thus, we will continue to do what we can in the business arena. It doesn't mean our answer will always be yes, but it does mean that community first is one of our guiding principles, as we continue to operate with "a heart for the people."
