VIPA announced today that it has revised its proposed marine tariff rate increases following extensive public and stakeholder engagement. The revised proposal reflects the concerns, recommendations, and feedback received during a series of public meetings held territory-wide on October 6–8, 2025.

The Virgin Islands Port Authority invites the public to attend hearings regarding changes to existing marine fees and the introduction of new fees. The revised marine tariff will take effect on January 1, 2026.

The USVI will welcome the first visit of Royal Caribbean International's Star of the Seas in Crown Bay, St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. The ICON-class ship arrives on Wednesday, September 10, 2025 at noon.

Repairs to the airport terminal's air conditioning system in St. Thomas are expected to be completed soon, providing a more comfortable experience for travelers and tenants of the King Airport in St. Thomas.
