dawnprincess Posted March 17, 2005 #1 Share Posted March 17, 2005 St. Thomas is the first port on our 3/25 QM2 cruise. This is convenient since we can buy U.S. postage at home and mail all our postcards from this port. Anyone see any mailboxes near the Havensight Mall area? I know I can ask the ship to mail them, but just thought if I knew the mailbox was handy, I'd like to put them in myself. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flintstone Posted March 18, 2005 #2 Share Posted March 18, 2005 I would like to know this info also. As we are sailing the week after Thanksgiving, I thought I would buy some "Caribbean-type" Christmas cards and have them ready to mail from St. Thomas. (Wouldn't that just "irk" your friends!! :p ). Also, does anyone know how long it takes to get an item to the US? Thanks Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawnprincess Posted March 18, 2005 Author #3 Share Posted March 18, 2005 What a neat idea, Flintstone! I'll have to remember that for a future cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawnprincess Posted March 18, 2005 Author #4 Share Posted March 18, 2005 To answer my own question, I read the Port report on Cruise Critic for St. Thomas and they mention a P.O. in the Havensight Mall area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flintstone Posted March 18, 2005 #5 Share Posted March 18, 2005 I thought I had read that there was a post office at Havensight. I'm just gonna take my chances and see if they are delivered on time. I wonder how many friends I'll have left by Christmas ! :D :D Oh well, that's what they get for not going with us!!! Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherGeek Posted March 18, 2005 #6 Share Posted March 18, 2005 I don't think I can be much help because I'm not sure about a post office at Havensight, but there is a post office near the main street where you can go shopping downtown. It is right across the street from the park-like area with benches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammynobrains Posted March 20, 2005 #8 Share Posted March 20, 2005 I sent postcards from the ship once. I gave them to someone at the purser's desk, and they mailed them from the next port of call. They even had the correct stamps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perky1 Posted March 26, 2005 #9 Share Posted March 26, 2005 There is a big post office on one of the main streets right by the port Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip2cruise Posted March 28, 2005 #10 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Yep, there is a Post office both at the Havensight Mall and in the downtown shopping area. My nephew makes me send a postcard from every place I visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Islander Posted March 31, 2005 #11 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Hello All, Yes there is a post office in Havensight. There is one downtown at the beginning of Main Street too. (There are also a few others; Sugar Estate, Frenchtown, Tutu.) It can take as little as 4 or 5 days for a letter... and I've had some take more like 10 or so days. --Islander ***** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
