Hi, we are arriving in SJU via Delta at 11:45 a.m. We are departing by Intercaribbean at 2:35. I have read on this forum that there might be some issues if we check our bags due to having to obtain our checked bags and reenter the airport and go through security, etc.

We are looking at doing carryons but we are bringing our snorkel gear with us which is posing the problem. Do you think we would have enough time with 2 hours from arrival to departure in SJU to obtain our checked luggage without issue and make it to the IC departure gate?

Or should we really try to do carry ons only?

We are traveling with a 6 year old so we want to ensure we plan this trip as efficiently and safely as possible. Missing our IC flight is not an option.

How does everyone else pack for a week in the BVIs when flying into EIS? Thanks for your insight and advice!
