TAXES

TAXIS
Taxis are widely available, but always agree on a price and currency before
setting off. Most drivers serve as both private taxi drivers and roadside
collective taxis, picking up folks alongside the road on a particular
route. It’s an inexpensive way to get around the island and it’s
a great way to meet people. The downside is that apart from work hours
it is sometimes a long wait for a ride.

Passport
and Visa Requirements
US, Canadian and British citizens may enter Montserrat with proof of citizenship
such as a driver's license. Visitors from all other nations must have
valid passports and entry visas are required of citizens of Cuba and the
Eastern Bloc Countries. A return ticket is required of all visitors.
Phillip,
Joe Drive the island with a running commentary.
TRANSPORTATION
-- CAR RENTALS
Although
car rentals are readily available and reasonably priced at about US $210/week
you will have to obtain a Montserrat driving license. Throughout the Eastern
Caribbean, the driving license has become a valuable source of governmental
income. It has nothing to do with your driving competence; it is simply
an added annoyance -- one that is unavoidable. Usually your car rental
service will make it as painless as possible. The temporary license costs
EC $50.

Airport
Gerald's Airport in the northern part of the island is now operational,
replacing the airport lost to the volcanic eruption of Soufriere Volcano
in 1997.
WinAir
now flies into Montserrat's new airport several
times a day on very small planes and this is the only form of transportation
to the island, unless you charter a flight on your own (see below). Baggage
on these small planes is limited to 40 lbs per person and you will pay
extra for excess baggage weight. Be sure to lock all of your luggage securely
if it will be cared for by baggage handlers, even your carry-on baggage
as that will be taken for storage at the back of the plane. Theft is very
common.
