Mikey, thanks for the reply, I also saw on the site that they only seem to list trips without transfers on the choices menu ( a poorly designed menu also I think). The route choices didn't look to bad if, as you hope, you can transfer! Please let us all know what you find out when you speak to them. I would be very interested in the free coupon if I can change planes only. Otherwise the ticket is only really good if ou are in a hub (Minneapolis). If the connection is a 'go' then the Caribbean looks like a real possibility (It has been very expesnsive over the last few years from Seattle, used to be cheap to get to San Juan).

As an aside, I highly recommend the British Virgin Islands as a quieter alternative to the USVI. On Virgin Gorda a few years ago I had a wonderful time at a little place on the south end of the island called 'guavaberry springs', your own little cottage, a commissary for food to prepare there and very friendly easy going hosts. The hotel beach abuts the 'baths' the famous beach of Virgni Gorda with the wonderful weird rock formations intertwined with the coral (it appears to be very similar to pictures I have seen of the Seychelles). Apparently those two geological features rarely occur together, quite spectacular!
