Personally, we have checked a bag with food in it ONCE. And the bag took a couple of days longer to get to SXM than we did. We have a small cooler that we take as carry-on. I personally would never check food again. Your mileage may vary.
Another option, if you want, is you can rent a cooler for $10 a week from Craig at Packlight. He has a medium sized flat top cooler that we often rent. We use it as a table on the beach also.

Can you advise where you saw the 2-4-1 sale? Just a heads up on the Polar Bear Coolers. I have 3 of them and the 2 newer ones have a totally different lining than the original which makes the capacity several cans (or whatever you are packing) less. It is a much stiffer lining and will not "give" at all like the original. Supposedly it is an anti-microbial lining but it really limits the packing as it is so stiff. The old "12 pack cooler" I have would easily hold 16+ cans and ice and did a great job. I have yet to get even close to 12 cans in the new "12 pack cooler" from Polar Bear. They do a great job for a soft sided cooler but the improved/new lining limits capacity. I would suggest ordering a size bigger than what you think you will need. With this special, it is a very good time to consider one.
J.D.
