Starting Oct. 27, every TUESDAY Jet Blue is flying Boston to SXM NON STOP as well as on Saturdays. Great news and should be great addition.

Great to hear. And it makes the number of nights just about right to us as an 11 night trip is just about perfect.
Go Jet Blue! So glad to see them making good use of their stimulus money.

I will have to wait for the fares to come back down to earth. Checked a Saturday return from SXM to BOS and it was north of $500 (one way) with only 15 travelers onboard.

Yup...and none on Tuesdays in January. It was kinda strange that they would pick Tuesday for one of their N/S's...it's usually Saturday and sometimes Sunday

I booked my flight for Tuesday November 3 on Tuesday NON STOP out of Boston and looked again this morning to see if flight was still scheduled. Not only was it still scheduled they lowered the price as well. The flight leaves at 11:10 AM which is perfect.

Perhaps Jet Blue is having website issues again, as just now, I couldn't even get to their site.

For an easy snapshot, go to the URL below, which is a Google Flights search for one-way non-stop fares between BOS and SXM on October 1. When it opens, click on the Calendar icon next to "Thu, Oct 1" to get a monthly view, and then use the right-arrow icons to page through the months. Saturday flights begin on 10/10, Tuesday flights begin on 10/27, change to Mon-Wed-Sat for Christmas and New Year's weeks, and then drops to Saturday-only in January. 'Course that could all change tomorrow.
It may be necessary to change your origin city to BOS.

Since most stayover tourists go to timeshares, this will be interesting. Wondering if they will use A220s later on these flights. Interesting.
