Folks have to get creative and adapt to survive.

In the late 70's, I remember a Saturday am Delta flight nonstop to Miami that was filled with nothing but NCL Skyward passengers and you went right on a bus to the Miami pier.

Makes some sense for the cruise lines to buy large blocks of seats to SXM on the day of sail if not a few days before and after.

Makes sense but since there are many origination airports with flight to/from SXM that probably isn't workable. Only way to make it work would be for everyone to fly to a designated airport and take a set flight from there.....or charter which seemed the better choice but not gonna happen

Pelican--apparently the cruise line is not really buying any seats. Passengers can book through them, but from a quick look, apparently it costs MORE to do so.. Kind of silly.
