They were looking for drugs, or other contraband. Either there was a tip that someone was bringing in something illegal, or, could be because they always do it when Copa is in. Since they were scanning stuff, anyone carrying illegal stuff would probably just opt to dump it somewhere, either in the terminal somewhere or somehow stuff it in someone ELSE's luggage.

Yes...you are right, but NOW it is worse than when we went. They will eventually get it together. We go several times a year, so we KNOW the love we have for SXM. NO matter what obstacles there might be at the airport. After Irma, we had to go thru the private jet terminal and our luggage was brought on the back of a truck. But, we were sad that we made Lesley, Kenny's Car Rental, wait so long for us to get out! By the way, I think the YouTube videos of the airports new arrival area are funny and informative, but it was still really a mess.
