I'm travelling to St Lucia on the 9 nov 2004 via Barbados on UC. I was wondering if anyone has flown this route and would like to know whether you stay onboard when you stopover. Also would like feedback on the total UC experience on this route.

Thanks

ps : I will no doubt post a trip report when I return!!!!!!!!

You'll stay onboard,usually keep the same flight deck and cabin crew, BGI staff will take off the BGI pax and bags, no-one will get on (except maybe island hopping Virgin staff)

The plane will take on some gas, there will be some odd problem that will delay you a minute of so along with a headcount and you'll be off for the 20min ride to UVF.

Your plane will be about 80 tonnes lighter out of BGI than it was out of LGW so despite throughly de-rated power you'll notice the performance to be some what 'perky'

Enjoy
