Mr. Hyman & colleagues,
Thanks for taking the time to document your efforts to bring some sort of normalcy to the airport operations with your phase 1 plans. You’ve had to return to some ‘old school’ steps while also integrating present day security requirements. For the travelers that will use this stop gap - crucial persons such as residents, owners, and those professionals coming to help the island recover - I am certain your efforts will be most appreciated since without it they could not re-enter.
For the casual/adventurous/patient visitor - we thank you in advance for the next phase that may allow those who wish to return and infuse the island in a personal way. Most of us recognize that your rebuilding not only the airport that is the gateway for the world to Sint Maarten/Saint Martin…but also YOUR own lives & homes. Your efforts are most appreciated and the limitations you are working within understood. Good on you all for making it to this step given the extreme hardship/circumstances.
Be sure to let everyone know when you are fully operational and “perfectly functioning” so that those who demand such can return….
.
