Exactly one year ago I purchased direct flights from Chicago to SXM for the 2nd week of March the following year. This equates to the kids spring break and for next year it would be March 10-17, 2018.
4 tickets purchased last year - $3000 4 tickets currently on United same flights - $5800
I've been watching prices for 6 weeks and it hasn't moved. Maybe we can swim there.

A few months ago we purchased a one-way non-stop return flight from SXM-ORD for February 11, 2018 for 6 of us on United. We are chartering a boat and had another couple join. When they went to book the same flights... that flight has now been changed to include a layover in Newark. No email, text, or phone call from United letting us know of the change.

No email, text, or phone call from United letting us know of the change. Unless you have email or text notification enabled in your profile, you will not get notification. An email associated with purchasing a ticket does not ensure your profile is updated. They may have flatly screwed up but I would check your account profile.

We purchased a 1 way ticket from ORD non-stop to SXM on United for $172 in April. We were shocked at the non-stop option!

United offers non stop from ORD-SXM on Saturdays during high season. That was a great price though!
