I hope this gets fixed soon, as VQS is a very nice destination.
An AA FA from Puerto Rico (but ased at ORD) told me that service would resume in April, but I am not sure how well he was informed. At the VQS airport there are all sorts of AA and Eagle counters and signs, and I think I saw screening equipment. Oh well, Cape Air makes for a more interesting ride.
Vieques is indeed very beautiful as landscape, though the human settlement is not picturesque.
