Covid test at airport?

Hi all. Here for a quick trip to see the parentals and leave on Monday. Is the airport still doing rapid antigen tests? That would probably be easier than my other options on the French side.

Thanks!

They are, but tests at the airport are WAAY more expensive than other places on the Dutch side. I think it's like $125 a person or similar? Suggest you contact MedWorks to make an appointment for a test there. Easy, on time, clean, professional. Highly recommended.

Bio Pole in Hope Estates does a test for around 88Euros with the test in the morning, and results (emailed) in around 5 hours. Must make an appointment, not just show up.

Do these places test on Sundays?

We are on island now and are unable to find anywhere that tests on Sundays, except the airport.... on the Dutch side.

As of TODAY, unless you're unvaccinated, the rule is 3 days before, not 1 day. My thought is that once the US goes to 1 day, I think at least some of the Dutch side places will start doing testing on Sunday.

That makes sense....and I guess we will find out soon because flights this Monday are subject to the new requirement

Right. I’m thinking the airport testing is going to be really busy on Monday if none of these places are open!

Angelface--are you going home this Monday?? BTW, I haven't heard back from Medwork yet. I sent them an email and asked about this situation. Perhaps they didn't even know about it yet??

Yeah, this Monday. World’s fastest trip - I didn’t even pack a bathing suit

They know about it. We leave on Friday and had appointments for testing on Wednesday. I sent them an email and they changed our appointments to Thursday.

I have not gotten a response to my email yet, so maybe they are trying to decide what to do, whether to offer testing on Sunday or not..

They know about it. They sent an email to everyone on their schedule to let them know you might need to change your appointment.

Angelface, if you're flying Monday afternoon, you can get your test at medworks on Monday morning.

Just adds more stress to get tested on flight day.

Just to close the loop here, I got a rapid antigen test this morning at around 8:30. I went to a testing site in Marigot by the Catholic church. There were two people ahead of me and I was in and out in 20 minutes (with results in hand) with the most gentle brain tickle test yet. Currently on my flight home

OK, glad to hear it worked out OK.
