I remember way back on the Millennium, we got on a waiting list in order to book AA tickets to SXM. Paid something like $1000 a person for air from the DC area, which was about twice the normal rate. We stayed at Club O, which at that time was still owned by the Brinks. They charged their NORMAL rates for that time period. And we ate there at the buffet for dinner. The price was nothing outrageous at all, maybe $35 a person, including party favors and a midnight toast. I have always appreciated the fact that the Brinks did not gouge people at that time. I remember some of the restaurants down the beach charging absolutely outrageous sums for the dinner that evening. It was truly a magical evening, with fireworks all up and down Orient Beach, and waking up the next morning with confetti in all kinds of odd places!!
