Thanks for the pics. Glad you were able to enjoy the end of your trip at Orient Beach Hotel. Glad you didn't have to deal with the early closing times on the French side also, in addition to the water situation.

terri--I'm more worried about the testing to get to SXM, and getting approval to fly.. That's what I was referring to. They seem to be doing a good job responding to people and sending almost instant approvals.

MOST people have no troubles, yes. But I got a PM Friday night from someone who was due to fly out Saturday morning, hadn't gotten their approval, and couldn't get through to anyone to try to help them. Don't know if they ever got the approval or not.

Carol,
We had the PCRT (if that’s right). Once we submitted the St. Martin form we were approved in about 30 minutes.
I think the bugs have been worked out. We followed all of the pointers from your forum. One form at a time and we used my email for mine and my wife’s email for the second.
I am sure you will be fine.
I had the same concerns.
carib cheers, doctorj

We did it back in November 2020 when it was fairly new and felt comfortable with the process. At the time, we actually did 2 covid tests just to feel we had all bases covered. It was a great vacation and now we have 2 scheduled for this year.
Be Happy! Simply because you deserve to be. 😁

FYI, EHAS are sticklers about not accepting oral swabs, even though it's still considered a PCR-RT test, and some claim even more accurate than nasal. For our recent trip, my oral swab test was eventually accepted after several resubmittals of application, my wife's was not....luckily here in houston it's easy to find places that will do the testing for free, with pretty quick turn-arounds, so we both got tested again, nasal swab this time, and she was then quickly approved
