Yup...did that connector to Grand Cayman a few weeks ago. Not bad this time of year but I just don't like involving BOS and JFK in January. Kinda doubling down on weather issues. I would rather connect in a little warmer place...rain vs. snow Good point.

30K miles? Not 35K?? Normally in season, it would be 35K. Regardless, right now, when a lot of people have to do an overnight BOTH ways to get to SXM, AND pay $1000 PP for the privilege, folks in the NE have a lot better options. I drive 3.5 hours one way to Miami and while I can't say I'm HAPPY to do that, I figure that's the best I'm ever gonna get. Even if there ends up being another nonstop from Florida, it will be either Jet Blue or Southwest, either one from south Florida.

Agreed. Multiple airlines, multiple airports, usually non-stop, late morning or early afternoon arrival, and under $500 in many cases and some still complain. Many just do not get what others pay and go through to get to SXM.

I thought some readers who DO live in The New England area would be interested in my findings but I guess that was interpreted as bagging and/or complaining. I don't get it but I guess it's a sensitive topic. I removed my follow up post and edited the original.

I don't get it but I guess it's a sensitive topic. I removed my follow up post and edited the original. And your contribution is appreciated. If you look at the first response to your post, you will see a reference to an early morning flight and then a 2.5 hour layover. A large number of SXM visitors deal with that and worse in their quest to get there. Two connections, overnighting on one or both ends of a flight, $1000+ airfare and VERY limited (if any) choices of airlines or airports and days to travel on. Perhaps is all depends on what you get used to but an early morning flight and a 2.5 hour connection would be pretty appealing to many traveling to SXM. It was bad for many before but since Irma, it is even worse.
