For the first time in more than three decades, St. Croix once again has nonstop air service to the New York metropolitan area, following the inaugural United Airlines flight between Newark Liberty International Airport and Henry E. Rohlsen Airport!
This historic milestone did not happen by accident. It reflects the Bryan-Roach Administration's years of persistent advocacy, strategic investment and commitment to expanding airlift, growing our tourism economy and creating new opportunities for St. Croix.
And what made this moment even more extraordinary? Both the arriving and departing flights were flown by our very own Crucian pilots!

Governor Albert Bryan Jr. Statement on Liberty Day 2026

“Today, we honor David Hamilton Jackson, a man who refused to accept that the voices of working Virgin Islanders should go unheard or that injustice should go unchallenged.

One hundred and eleven years ago, Jackson published The Herald, giving our people a voice during a time of oppression and inequality. He stood alongside laborers who demanded fair wages, better working conditions and the dignity they had long been denied.

Jackson understood that progress could not exist without liberty. The rights we enjoy today were not secured through silence, but through the courage of those willing to stand together and demand change.

His legacy belongs to every Virgin Islander, as does our responsibility to preserve the freedoms he fought to advance and ensure that future generations inherit a more just and equitable Territory.

As families gather in Grove Place for the cherished Bull and Bread tradition, may we remember the struggle behind this celebration and the extraordinary man whose courage helped shape our history.

On behalf of the Bryan-Roach Administration, I wish Virgin Islanders at home and abroad a meaningful and proud Liberty Day.”

Four Crucians. Two flights. One unforgettable moment in our island's history!

But this is about much more than an airplane landing on our shores. It's about reconnecting families, bringing our diaspora closer to home, welcoming more visitors, supporting local businesses and opening new doors for economic growth.

For more than 30 years, this connection was missing. Today, it is restored.

That is the significance of this achievement. That is the impact of intentional leadership and sustained investment in St. Croix's future.

St. Croix is moving forward, and we're making history along the way!

Welcome to St. Croix, United Airlines!
