I am trying to be optimistic, but realistically I don't see many tourists being able to return to the island until sometime in 2021. Many countries have far too many cases for SXM to allow residents from these countries to enter the country. The opening of the airport is only one problem in controlling this virus; there are many more problems to be addressed before tourist travel can happen. Then there is also the threat of a second wave in the fall to compound everything. Most people do not want to be out of the country if this occurs. Keeping the residents of St. Maarten/ St Martin is a major concern and one we should all think about before planning a trip there in the near future.
