Been reading the stories about how much extra they charge from the airport to your hotel. ex. pick up fee/ night time/ $4 a bag / ect. ect. In my trip, the travel agent said my trip from the airport to hotel is included. Is it really? or is it still going to cost me? Thanks

Staying at Emerald Beach (BW) Don't know, but last month when I was originally planned to come down and stay at the Rennisance, it was included in that package too. Round trip flight + hotel + day trip to St. John with transportation to hotel. This time I rescheduled and it was flight +hotel+ transportation to hotel, no day trip.

If the airport pickup is included in your travel arrangements, you will not use the taxis att he airport. Most of the tour people use Tropic Tours for the transfers to the hotels. Any taxi can take you wherever you want to go.
The only time they have a pick up fee is when you call them and they have to come and pick you up. There is no such fee at the airport by just getting a cab to the hotel.
Bags are charged at from $1 up to $4 and if it is large and cumbersome, they have to tell you how much before you get into the cab as it could be more.
