Here is some of the best travel news and notes from around the Internet:
- Yesterday’s travel news roundup included a report on Richard Branson’s private island called Necker Island which was right in the path of Hurricane Irma.
- Mommy Points yesterday reported on the status of some of the points hotels in the Caribbean
- Today, Point me to the Plane shared news on hotels on St. Kitts, St. Martin and elsewhere in Irma’s path, as well as damage to the classic Maho Beach overlooking Princess Juliana airport on St. Martin
- Days after being blasted for dumping passengers in Miami with nowhere to go, several cruise lines are using their ships to bring supplies to affected islands and bringing stranded tourists back to the mainland.
