The fear of importing cases of COVID from the US to other locations, including SXM, is very real for many people. SXM, like SBH, is requiring a negative RT-PCR test within 72 hours of the arrival day. The subtle difference between the two requirements is that SBH is requiring that the test be performed within 72 hours, while SXM is requiring that the results be received within 72 hours.
Right now, flights on AA between MIA and SXM are under $200 R/T for much of July and August.

Phil, that's what we are planning. We actually added another day to the trip thinking that we might have to spend 24 hours at the Villa. We picked a nice property (hopefully) with a big pool, hot tub and great views, I think 24 hours in it will be easy. Especially with Concierge service from WIMCO.

You will have to get retested after 7 days
Scotik, IF you fly to SMX, you'll be going to California...SXM is the airport code for St Maarten.
on the forum.
Years ago the owner of the agency where I worked did tix for a couple travelling from Alabama back to Phila. via Pittsburgh, left them in Pittsburgh, I had to do the clean up since she wouldn't ! So I did her dirty work with USAirways to get them back to PHL on a weekend with big football game in PIT. They became my clients for years.
And AC left us in Toronto since AC cancelled the Toronto to SAVannah flight & no reaccommodation ! Moot point now since no cruise, no reason to be in Canada. But AC said too bad, we give vouchers not refunds. Important for all to know airport codes !

Forty years ago, in an entry level job, a coworker and I spoke about our nationwide call-in clients in airport codes. She was a former flight attendant. I was a not-as-heavily-traveled-as-I-wanted-to-be wannabe. I'm much better traveled now. I still think about cities and destinations in airport codes, but now more of those codes may be ICAO codes instead of the more common IATA codes. For example, Princess Juliana airport to me is TNCM when I'm tracking flights, but SXM when I'm booking flights. Likewise, depending on what I'm doing, the St Barth airport may be either TFFJ or SBH.
