AE Slashes Fares (Not Flights) to BVI

Jet Stream Yacht Charter
The numbers of flights from Beef Island's major carriers will not shrink this summer, despite lower-than-average traffic. Last week, Gerard Arpey, Chairman and CEO of AMR Corporation, the parent company of American Airlines, said the company was taking steps in response to a difficult demand evironment. American Eagle has announced that as of last month, flights have been bumped from 3 daily flights during the week and 5 daily flights on weekends, to 7 daily flights. The carrier has taken one flight off its schedule in June- merging the 1pm and 4 pm flight into a 2:50 departure. Although American Eagle is is flying at about 50% capacity, Carlos Garcia, AE station manager at the Terrance B. Lettsome International Airport, said numbers should increase based on new prices being marketed. "There are really low prices, so we are expecting people to come to the VI", he said. Just how low? I just found a round trip AE flight from Tampa to Beef Island for the amazing price of $198.00! WOW!!!!

Many of the boats in the charter fleet are also offering incredible deals this summer. For instance, experience the ultimate sailing adventure aboard Jet Stream, a luxurious 45' catamaran and get a night free! With 3 queen-sized cabins with ensuite heads and showers, up to 6 guests can experience the most awesome adventures possible! Captain Tim has skippered charter boats professionally and taught sailing since 1988. He has interwoven his sailing career with a parallel career as a golf professional. Formerly Stanford University's Head Golf Coach, he has also directed an internationally acclaimed golf school and pioneered leading-edge teaching technology. Although the BVI (Jet Stream's main area of concentration) is not a hot-bed of gold, Captain Tim will be happt to design a cruise to islands that feature golf, for guests that would like to blend sailing and golf vacations. Chef Marsha is professionally trained. She specializes in Asian and Middle-Eastern cooking, but is equally happy to produce Western fare. Her personal favorites tend toward the high-taste, low-fat end of the scale, but whatever the tastes of her guests, Marsha can be counted upon to please the palate. Tim and Marsha enjoy sharing their love of the laid-back life of catamaran cruising with their guests. They will be happy to quietly facilitate a private vacation of a lifetime or they will actively involve guests with as much of the operation of Jet Stream as they might enjoy. Either way, you will have the ride of your life! Click to learn more about a Jet Stream Yacht Charter.
