Re: French smoking ban Tandoorii 2 hours ago
As an occasional cigar smoker (especially on vacation) I try to stay away from people who I might bother. I usually take a walk on the beach or try to stay downwind of the crowd.
However, the most disgusting smell is cigarette smoke. I think it's the paper wrapper, which keeps it smoldering. If I'm around cigarette smokers, I usually join in with a stogie and puff away...and they think it stinks worse than their pack a day fire bomb! Just sayin...

Westjet also added Panama and a few latin american flights (most/all were routes from the before days).

AC has a discount code ending tonight as well... but I never find deals on AC.

Good luck.
Where do you grab this 20% discount code from? I didn’t see any….

It is worse than Anegada - I've been to both smile

Now that I think back, I can't recall that Anegada has a grocery store... so I think that you are right after all!!!

Re: Long time from the forum timnboston Yesterday at 11:22 AM
As always, St Martin remains amazing. There have been many changes in the last 10 years or so, and many of us old timers have trouble adjusting to change LOL. As with all change, some of it has been good and some of it not so good. But the beaches and food are still incredible, and the natives wonderfully welcoming. How have you managed to stay away for so long?

CaribLee,
Good question. I think they drove trucks carrying materials across the golf course from the Mullet Bay Beach parking lot, but I'm not sure.

Re: how long can i keep frozen food in soft sided cooler DaveF 07/17/2025 08:49 PM
The main reason we brought a cooler was to minimize prep time on the boat. So 5 or 6 main meals seasoned, vacuum packed and ready to cook for the 10 days. Then the other nights are eat out nights. This reduces preparation time also all that is planned in advance so less thinking of what to buy when provisioning. We also bring some special comfort foods. Other items we will get locally.

Hopefully, we can still load up in advance with much of this is delivered to the boat, especially for the rum, water, wine and beer.

Re: Any news about Southwest coming to SXM? boucharda 07/17/2025 02:43 PM
Yup...and the Global Entry line is ALWAYS less than 5-6 people vs, the regular customs line which can be HUGE. We are in Aruba at the end of October almost every year

That (pre-clearance) would be a BIG addition to SXM
