No it does not.

thanks....
Do you know if you can get temp phones once there? I am traveling with 4 teenagers and would like some kind of contact with them when they are out and about???

I can personally vouch for and recommend Tracfone. (www.tracfone.com) It's a prepaid service that works perfectly in the USVI. I just checked their website and right now you can buy a reconditioned Nokia phone with 100 minutes for under $30. You can even set it up with a local St Thomas phone # so you won't be roaming.

One mom to another, I know what you mean about trying to keep track of your teens and I agree that having a cell phone will help you to rest easy. Something about knowing they can reach you if they need you is comforting!
Good luck!

Thank you so much for your help. I will definetely get on the tracfone website and get the phones.... Yeh, teenagers are not easy !!! Every little bit helps ease the worry I guess. If you have any other suggestions traveling to st thomas with teens please let me know!!! Thanks again. Charlene

Hi again, I just got on the tracfone website but when i put in the st thomas zip code it tell me no coverage there??? Any suggestions?

When the kids were teenagers I always thought that having micro chips imbedded with a tracking system was a good idea - maybe they have the technology now! You might see if Sprint or someone rents phones or ask the hotel where you are staying. Some of them have beepers?

well i am not too sure i want to know EXACTLY where or what they are doing. 🙂 I will ask at the hotel about the phone....as soon as i figure out where we are staying....still havent made a decision on that yet either!!!
