Wife and I arrived today. Connected through Charlotte which was an absolute mess to be honest. Luckily didn't miss our connection to SXM. Landed on island and was through immigration and customs within 20 minutes. Leslet with Kennys met is outside the terminal with our car and our phone from Sharon, what a service. We breezed on up to our hotel in Gand Case, found street parkinf and went out to find a drink. Great start at Calmos and moved next door right after(don't remember the name of the joint). After a couple more drinks we headed to Piazza Pascal where Donna and Pascal took great care of us. My wife has celiac disease and Pascal made sire she had options to choose from(top people). Overall a great first day on the island and can't wait for the next week! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" />

How long was your connection time in Charlotte? I'm arriving on an international flight and have 2:30 mins (AA changed flight times) I hope it's enough to collect my bags, go through customs/immigration and check in again

Patty, that should be plenty of time. Do you have Global Entry?

Even without it, you should be fine. They have kiosks for all travelers now in CLT, so that moves things along faster.

No reports for days #2 and #3?
Methinks sand gravity must be setting in.
Well done!!!
