Asked and answered. Thank you

This is really the key issue. Did family law for several years. Some have separation agreement, custody order requiring written permission just to take a minor out of state! If there is anything in writing regarding parental consent to travel.......not a situation where you do the deed and beg forgiveness later.

Thanks guys!!

Never much info re Jax on the Florida boards .....think it's because only one Carnival ship sails from there and port location. Hopefully someone here or on Florida board will have a suggestion

If you are also considering Royal Caribbean perhaps a post on that board would help you decide.

You will find a wealth of information about cruise and travel insurance on this board: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/499-cruisetravel-insurance/ One thing to look at is medivac amounts. You never think it will happen to you but if a medical emergency requires a flight home for treatment it can easily run over $50,000 depending on distance. The medical part of coverage does not include that

Quick Coach is easiest option

I let this go way way off topic from the original post re Guys Burger. Thanks for staying polite and remember the next time someone goes ballistic when something sort of "off topic" veers off for a few unkind posts or is just barely off topic and stays. .😉

Traffic can be awful in St Thomas if several ships in port. If you have late arrival what time does ship leave? If you go on your own to St John will need to get cab to ferry but ship tours sometimes pick you up at the port by boat. You also don't have to be concerned with getting back on time. If you have short port time might be better to stay on St Thomas for beach? I've done ship tour to St John and it was nice not hassling with cabs. With relatively young children I would possibly find a closer beach on St Thomas but that's just me.

Op's question has hopefully been answered adequately!

Here is another link to the prior thread discussing this policy

You might want to ask this on NCL board!

My son lives there part time ....asked him and said even on east end where he lives tourists feel safe. Take usual precautions re money, pocketbooks, wandering off to out of the way areas etc. Been there twice mostly on West end and find it much more "comfortable" than Jamaica for example
