I have to say this here. Anyone who is going to SXM in the near future has to be prepared for a LOT of difficulty, especially flying in and out of PJIA, which is NOT going to be easy, comfortable or convenient for quite some time. At this point, if you are concerned about having to book a connecting flight, you probably should not be considering even going. Having to book a connecting flight will be the LEAST of your troubles, BEFORE you arrive in SXM. Having a connecting flight into and out of an airport that at least has power, a/c, food, etc., is a whole different situation than flying in and out of Juliana, which will not have the above for quite a while. And then once you arrive, your troubles will multiply, ten fold...
