mahokid--pretty much anyplace high end on island (and around the world) jacks up their prices for NYE.

For the millenium, which was 23 years ago now, we paid over $1000 a person for air from Washington DC to SXM. And we had to get on a list over a year ahead of time, to be able to purchase tickets. AA certainly didn't care about jacking up their prices. Club O did NOT raise their hotel prices for the Millenium, which was impressive to us. They had a buffet that night, and I don't recall it being high priced at all.
