In searching for airfare to stx june 1 return june 30 - this seems to be the cheapest place to get tickets. Anyone deal with them? Or have any better ideas? Will be staying at Mt. Victory Camp - Can't wait! Have started packing already.
Thanks for any help!

I always check Cheaptickets.com first and have found that they most often have the lowest fares.

The AA guarantee only applies if you find AA flights cheaper elsewhere than on aa.com.
Other airfare search aggregators offer more results like kayak.com, qixo.com, and mobissimo.com
These will find fares from non-majors like Spirit and Jet Blue, and regional lines like Cape Air and Caribbean Sun.
In addition to checking routes from your home airport to the island of choice like STT, check for flights to San Juan (SJU) which sometimes are available from the NE for cheap, then for separate regional or AA from SJU - sometimes significantly cheaper this way. If many in your party, can add up to real money.

Thanks to all of you - I just booked my air thru onetravel.com(via sidestep.com) and got what I thought was a decent rate. $530. out the door. I tried the priceline thing and came up with no takers on offers up to $500. So I took this one.

Deposit is sent for the lodging, airfare purchased, bags are being packed. Appointments are set up for the tanner - to get a base before I come. Lord willing, my month in Paradise is in the works!!

I keep a picture of Trunk Bay, STJ with me at work right where I can see it. It was the best picture I could find that represents what I want to be doing.

Again, thanks to everyone - Keep in touch!
