Icote: I had no idea either,as like I said, have been coming to island for 20 years. Have always packed the same. The thieves obvioiusly tore my makeup bag apart and found the envelope with two rings in it. I was shocked when I posted a post on Facebook and saw all the comments of people who have had tons of stuff stolen. Unbelievable......finally got thru to Westjet, and have been on hold for 1 hour....and waiting.....I just want them to know what is happening. We pay for checked bags and trust them to take care of our bags. If thefts are happening at SXM airport, then the airline should report it. Let's face it,,,you cannot put everything in a carry on. When we were departing, Westjet was a full plane, so they were begging people to check their carry-on's. Then what?? Anyways, as I said, good for people to know, and NOW I know. Heartbroken over my mom's ring tho.....:(
