My family is planning a trip to St. John's and we need a little help with two things.

Is there a company on St John's (or I guess St Thomas would be possible) that will rent a hoyer lift, commode chair, and air mattress?

Because the airport does not have a jetway, how would I get on and off the plane--we have heard that they have lifts but we would need to know this for sure.


Any information would be a huge help.

Thank you

Talk about IN LUCK!
Ya hit the motherlode on this one there, Bobo-Beedoo-bop.

Through my unending source of on hand human ready labor and logistics support services I have the uncanny ability to get you exactly WHAT you need. WHEN ya need it. And at a price guaranteed to give Jayzuz H. the mother of all involuntarys.

And it's so diddlee dingdanged easy, why even a small child can do it. All's ya needs is mom n' dads's VISA card and just five or ten minutes with a "borrowed"cellfone or your library's computer. No worries boys an' girls, I WILL answer the fone come hell or high water.

Chairs for crappin? We got 'em. Hoyers fer lifting? Look at that sucker, it'll lift a Rolls Royce, and it's small enough to fit in yer pocket.
Jetway, smetway, I got a friggin' helicoptor! We will surgically insert you, just name the place, with a dang Seal Team to liven things up a bit.

Simply inject massive amounts of money into E-dog's road to financial freedom and I'll take super dooper care of you.
Just close yer eyes, ferget all yer cares an' worries n' leave everything to me. I'll be your eyes and ears on the ground while you dine and dance the night away.

Call real soon kiddies, I think my Rolex needs a new battery.

when it absolutely, positively, has to be destroyed overnight, call the Marines.

I will nevah, EVAH take a pinch from a greasy muddahf*@kah like you!

How 'bout if I spell it out for ya. D-I-L-L-I-G-A-F

This is a decent piece of gear:

Call the customer representatives of your airline to alert them you will need transfer help at your destination. to be safe I would talk to the rep at the airport you are going to.
Look! It's a snail! It's a sloth! Able to creep short distances before lunch!
