Anyone flown on a carrier that you would RECOMMEND, from SJU to SXM? I can get a really cheap flight on Allegiant to SJU--which has a lot of possible issues there--but wondering how reliable any of the small carriers are, that fly from SJU to SXM.. Plus it seems that any nonstop flights are running over $300 round trip, so not worth it??

Air Antilles Express is the same as Winair? I was looking on a Saturday in high season and r/t nonstop on Winair was way over $300 r/t. It doesn't seem like it's worth checking into more, having to deal with Allegiant, plus booking two separate tickets..

Avoid LIAT. Made the SJU to SXM trip with them 2 years ago. It took 36 hours to complete the trip and a level of organizational incompetence that I have rarely witnessed in all my travels. I don't flame vendors easily or write this lightly. They may have improved their issues in the meantime (many articles written about their problems), but I doubt I'd roll those dice again

Yes, I pretty much knew that. We have had decent luck with Winair. Kind of wondered about Seabourne, but it is even more expensive than Winair...

I got over $300 r/t, but not sure it's worth doing, even for $278.. Too many variables.

I've kind of decided it's not worth trying, as I (stupidly) thought that I could get flights from SJU and SXM a lot cheaper than you can. We've flown Allegiant a couple of times. We got there safely, eventually... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" />
