Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can help me understand the procedure returning home through SXM and offer some advice. We arrive on Saint Barth Commuter at 12:15, and depart on United at 3:10 on a Saturday.
1. Does United allow you to use mobile boarding passes (or those you print ahead of time)? Or do they need to verify passports, etc. in-person before issuing the boarding pass?
2. If we don't have the boarding passes ahead of time, is there a United desk in the arrivals area to do this? Or will we have to go back out to the ticket counter to get them?
We're trying to figure out if it's worth it to do carry-on only for our return home (which could be difficult depending on shopping bargains). I think we have plenty of time at SXM, but I'd prefer not to endure the frustration of standing in multiple lines. Plus, our connection in Newark is only 90 minutes and I'm concerned that will be tight.
Thoughts?
