Timeline help: SXM to SBH

[davesmom]

I looked at my old emails and we paid €180 in 2020. Unlike Tradewind VIP., Winair VIP is only one way. SXM to SBH. That was per couple. I don’t know what the charge is now. I also take photos of my luggage so they can see what my luggage looks like.
They have never let us down. Good luck with your travels.

That is very nice of you to share this information. I will write to Vincent of Premium IV to ask him to evaluate the situation. That is good to know about Winair, so thank you.

We have used Winair’s VIP service for many years and have been very pleased. They met us, retrieved our luggage escorted us through security and put us on an earlier flight if available. When our luggage was delayed they delivered it to us where we were staying..
Aimee Greaux their VIP representative has been very helpful in communicating with us by answering any questions with a quick email response. When we had to “ evacuate “ quickly in March 2020 and change plans after the hurricane Aimee was very helpful.
You can access Winair’s VIP on their website. I hope this other option will help you.

Bluemoon, WinAir's VIP service sounds great, but I could not locate the link on their website...can you direct me, or send me Aimee Greaux's email address? Many thanks! We fly in 2 weeks...

Not Bluemoon but I looked into it after the post. Emailed them a few days ago for a quote and have not heard back yet. It is an outside partner, not directly through Winair.

Bluemoon, Nevermind! I found Aimee and she is extremely efficient. Thank you for the tip!

I wrote to Vincent and he sounded a bit sad that we could not reliably make the SBCommuter flight but there is nothing I can do about it. Have to do Winair, time wise. He did say I should book 1 and 1/2 hours between flights so I will follow his advice and then engage them to help us through the transfer. I was thinking they would be good since they can do the round trip help, too.

No matter which airline you choose, Vincent and his team in SXM will take care of you.

We are overnighting in San Juan at the airport hotel in a few weeks. If anyone has done it recently, how far in advance should I fill out the required health forms. Any other recent info on how long it takes to get through the SJU security lines in the morning would be great. Can’t wait to get there.

We are overnighting in San Juan next Friday. American just emailed us a veriFLY app we needed to fill out in order to board in Miami..we now have a green QR code...all good....if you are on Tradewind that morning no need to go through security..go to lounge and they will come get you

I forgot to mention check in with Tradewind first then go to lounge...no security

I wonder if you need this app to fly to SXM on AA?

Yes, that’s what you upload your COVID test to to return to the US.

After our trip there in July, we elected to postpone further international travel until the test requirement to return home is dropped. Covid was surging on the island the week were there and the return testing added a level of stress that detracted from such a nice vacation. Hopefully cases will continue to decline and the requirement will be dropped at some point. Just our personal preference not to deal with it again.
