My Jetblue flight says we arrive in SXM at 12:30 pm. Is this really 1:30 SXM time? We have a driver picking us up when we arrive and I want to be sure I am telling him the correct time. Thanks!

The ticket will show the time you arrive in SXM time. Don't forget after this weekend, when Daylight Saving Time begins, Eastern Standard and Atlantic time will be the same

We don't arrive until late March so that means USA eastern time and SXM time will be the same correct?

Yes after this Sunday NYC and Caribbean will be on the same time. During Fall / Winter months we are 1 hour behind.

Yes, that is correct. But even were it not, the time on your ticket is your arrival time at your destination, in their time zone.

Some areas, notably Bermuda, change to Atlantic Daylight Time which remains 1 hr ahead.
