280z--I won't categorically say that no one has ever been pickpocketed at Juliana, but it never has been a big issue that I know of. I have been online since way back in the Prodigy days and this is the first I have heard of it.

With regard to the original question, when the "new" airport was rebuilt in (2006 ????????) there was a lounge called the Souliga lounge in place. I don't actually know if anyone with premium status with an airline would get in free, but a daily pass there was pretty reasonable. Maybe $30? I can't remember. If I had any extra time at the airport, it was definitely well worth the money. Of course it has not been open since Irma destroyed a good portion of the airport. However, I have to assume there will be a lounge in place, whenever Juliana is finally fully repaired.
