Too close for comfort?

I'm coming to SBH on Aug 22. My flight into SXM lands at 1:50p, the only next available flight on St Barth Commuter is at 2:15p (25min later). Is this too close (assuming my inbound flight is on time)? Is this possible?

If not, I'll guess I'll need to spend the night on SXM & fly over to SBH the next morning?

Is the ferry an option?

If you have checked luggage it is too close and maybe too close anyway. Did you check Winair flights or St Barth Commuter out of Grand Case?

Hello,

I am sorry, but you need 1 hour for the transit in SXM with checked luggage.
The best solution would be to book the tickets from St Martin Grand Case (French side) on 5.30pm flight, and check at your arrival with our staff if seats are available on next flights from SXM.

Best regards,
Michael

Don't spend the night- take a ferry over. it takes longer but you will be in on the island.

Why ferry over flights from Grand Case or Winair? What am I missing??

. . . didn't realize that WinAir is an option -- of course, I'd go to WinAir (I get great service from WinAir!). I was just analyzing spending a night on "SXM," versus finding a way to SBH.
