St. Thomas Travel Forum

I'm looking to go to St Croix. I'm cheap and the flights are much cheaper to St Thomas (even cheaper to San Juan) than to St Croix from New York City. Can anyone tell me how long it would take/ how difficult/ how expensive it would be to go from the St Thomas airport to the ferry location to go to St Croix. Once I get to St Croix I have a friend to pick me up anywhere on the island. It seems that taking a little puddle jumper plane from island to island would cancel out any savings from flying to St Thomas but a ferry would still save me 100$-ish and I wouldn't mind a nice pleasant boat ride anyway.

thanks,
adam
