Hey everyone,
I know there are other threads asking and reporting the
current conditions of the USVI and
BVI post Irma and Maria aftermath, so I'll leave it to those areas to continue that conversation.
However, I was more so interested in knowing why early December, namely the first two weeks, are always considered low season and typically fall under the cheapest rates throughout the year for all the
charter companies in this area and across the
Caribbean. And again, I'm referring to any year, not this year specifically.
Is it just simply timing? i.e. do most people want to
charter during the holidays, and not right before? Is it because things are typically closed down during early December? Is it because of poor
weather, temperatures, or bug fluctuations? Is there any reason not to take advantage of reduced rates during these couple of weeks?
It seems to me that by December, you should be well outside of the typical
hurricane season, so if anyone could clarify a little for my wife and I, it would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
dave
