From the airport to STJ, which Ferry should we take, Red Hook or Charlotte Amalia? Also, our return flight leaves at 3pm. What time should we hit the ferry to make sure we get to the sirport on time?
Thanks

Which ferry you take depends on your arrival time. The downtown ferry only runs a few times a day (the schedules are under "Quick Links" top right this page). You should be at the airport two hours before your flight time. From the CA terminal to the airport is about 10 minutes and from the Red Hook terminal allow about 35 minutes.

The Red Hook ferry is about 15 min. The Charlotte ferry ride is about 40 min. (give or take for the wind). That may help you.

Arriveing: Ask the taxi dispatcher which ferry to take but there are very few Charleotte Amalia ferry running these days. You'll probably be going to Red Hook.
Departing: You need to take the noon ferry to make a 3PM departure flight.
