Transportation
IMI staff -
easily recognizable in our coral shirts and holding custom signage - will
be on hand to meet your guests upon arrival as they enter the terminal and
head towards baggage claim at Cyril E. King Airport on St.
Thomas. We'll then escort them to the baggage claim
to identify their luggage
(where skycaps will then assist), then we will walk them to our waiting 14-passenger
air-conditioned vans for direct transfer to their hotel. During the drive,
our savvy and courteous drivers will be pleased to share local knowledge
and insider tips on getting the most enjoyment out of their visit to our
islands.
For Departure, airlines require that passengers arrive
at the airport two hours prior to departure. IMI can provide detailed
departure notices that will be delivered to guest rooms. The notices
explain bag pulls and transfer times. Guests will be required to clear
customs upon departing St. Thomas and will need to have proof of
citizenship, as St. Thomas is considered an entrance point into the Untied
States. Currently, there are no departure taxes.
Regarding airport transfer rates, the per person rate
is based on a 4-person minimum per van. We place up to 8 passenger in a
van with luggage and 10 passenger per van should luggage go in a
separate vehicle. Rates include baggage handling.
IMI "Meet & Greet" Service
IMI provides airport "Meet-and-Greet" service based on
the specific arrival patterns of your guests.
Supplemental Baggage Service
IMI will automatically arrange for additional vehicles
to accommodate luggage for groups of more than 25 persons arriving or
departing on the same flight. This ensures a more relaxed and efficient
transfer process.
Private Luxury Transportation
A limited number of limousines, sedans and luxury SUVs are
available - just the thing to insure privacy, comfort and personal space
for VIP's.
St. John Transfers
St. John guests arriving at the St. Thomas airport are
met similarly to those staying on St. Thomas. Our transfers to St. John
are private and are scheduled according to the arrival and departure times
of the guests, thus avoiding any wait time. Groups are
transferred to the National Park ferry dock at St. Thomas' East End,
approximately 25 minutes, and there they board a private water taxi for a
short, 15 minute boat ride to the hotel dock on St.John. For departure, the process
is reversed, the guests are transferred back to the east end of St. Thomas
and then to the airport based on their flight departure times.
