Has anyone flown there? It looks like there's Vertical Solutions which uses r22/r44's for training and tours, and Caribbean Heli-Jet which does all kinds of random stuff with an astar b2, and bell 407 and 427. I'm more interested in Caribbean Heli-Jet but would like info on both. Good companies? Pay halfway decent? Mx ok? Preferred hiring mins? etc? What's the story down there?

Worked in St. Thomas. You'd have a chance with VS, but probably not with the other company. Pretty territorrial down there by the locals and that is fair. Good maintenance, probably your typical lousy 24/7/365 schedule. Traffic, crime,QOL,hospitals are tough. Weather is warm and drinks are cold but that's about it.
