Have Delta flights been arriving in SXM?

We are flying Delta (hopefully) on November 28th and I believe that was the first Saturday available. Fingers crossed that we actually can go. I need a respit from the Covid life

Delta cancelled ALL flights to SXM for Sept. and October and will have limited service beginning in Nov. with more service coming on in Dec.

They currently show Sat. service beginning Nov. 14.

DELTA FLIGHTS

Use the link above, go to the "FLIGHTS" tab, enter "ATL" and "SXM" and then click on the "DEPARTING ON" calendar and you can see what service if offered on what days of the month. ALL of this is subject to change but they announced towards the end of August about the elimination and reduction of service to SXM. I know as we had our November flights cancelled.

My December/January flights are still on. But who knows!!!!

i got a 19 NOV thru Atlanta (Thursday) return to U.S. , check every day, and still a go

Yes, that date is shown as having service. If you have a connection, you might want to check that and make sure it has not changed to an overnight. This would have been the case for us had we rebooked.

SO FAR SO GOOD

actually it would be kind acceptable to get an overnite, cuz as of now i don't get back to boston till around midnite, stay at an airport hotel and get shuttle to and get airport shuttle from and to airport for an early morning flite and a good nites rest and early arrival in Boston. but i am sure my wife will want to see our dog as soon as possible...LOL

Similar here, get home around midnight but we are just 15 minutes from the DAY airport. Two dogs that would either be boarded or cared for in the home and my wife still works so that is an extra day of vacation, and we would have already lost one day had we booked the new itinerary. Along with more $$ for each ticket, it was a deal breaker.

Hope it works out for you.

about an hour or so ride from logan to HOR, but no traffic for limo to negotiate at midnite or so

Just flights booked flights with Delta for 12-11, but I'm not holding my breath.

I have flights booked on Delta, first available same day arrival out of Minneapolis November 8th.

I have been deciding on flights for our January trip for the last month or so....between Delta and United (from BOS)....gave up on JB since they seem to have blown off Sunday departures from BOS and prices for Saturday are a bit up there anyway

United through EWR went from $456 r/t 2 weeks ago to $244 r/t today.....we booked... and added the Economy plus extra room...free checked bags with the CC....NEVER paid $244 base for an SXM flight...ever

Interesting fact that everyone probably knows but I didn't,,,,the distance between EWR and SXM is the same as ATL to SXM ....so a short hop to EWR saves over an hour in the air vs a trip to ATL and then to SXM

A very good price.

Great price! Sure hope they don't cancel it on you! Too many airlines are cancelling flights out the you-know-what!

I checked the seat maps....the flight I booked has a reasonable number of booked seats but plenty more available ....business is half full. The Delta flights, especially the JFK connection were bare empty and did not give me the warm fuzzies.....definitely have to look at the seating charts now and figure out if there are enough passengers to make it worthwhile...

I think travelers are just waiting for confirmation as to what they actually need to be accepted.....or not

Bouchard,

If you’re suggesting that flights are being cancelled due to under booking, I learned a long time ago they are just as apt to cancel a full flight as they are an under booked one. We had a Good Friday flight that was fully booked (but for one or two seats in First Class and sadly, there were four of us at the time.....) and they cancelled the Palm Sunday before our trip. No rhyme or reason - they just flat out cancelled the flight. This was AA out of JFK quite a few years ago and long before flight cancellations became the norm they are today. They compensated us nicely and did find us other flights that day but it was still a major nightmare at the time.

Yup...maybe. But the chance is decreased with a reasonable booked flight. Not talking AA....but JB, United and Delta

I have zero faith in AA and that is definitely my personal opinion and my bro in law id a long haul 777 captain on AA.. It kinda makes zero sense to cancel a nearly full flight but there are many other reasons involved....the best i can do is book on a flight with a decent amount of seats booked....after that it's out of my control

I hear you and you’d laugh if you heard how many times I’ve booked and rebooked our late November AA trip but I really like flying from our regional airport even if it does mean connecting somewhere. And yes, it’s AA - bet you’re not surprised about that. But it was originally an April trip so cancelled due to SXM airport closing in the Spring and who knows why in early November and then they put me on unacceptable flights so it was cancelled again until we came up with late November dates and flights Zand then, yet another cancellation. Keeping my fingers crossed on this one......😊😊

You do what you HAVE to do.....
