Daily American Airlines Flights to SXM
In total, American Airlines is increasing its winter 2024 - 2025 high season schedule with eight new routes to Latin America and the Caribbean, according to Radio Jamaica News. The new routes announced offer daily flights from New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to St. Maarten's Princess Juliana International Airport (SXM). These new flights are starting December 7, 2024. Be sure to book early, because as of today, there are one way tickets from JFK to SXM for as low as $191 per person!
What this Means for the St. Maarten Real Estate Market
With more and more connectivity to and from the island's Princess Juliana International Airport, as well as the new renovations nearing completion, St. Maarten and St. Martin are set for a tourism boom. Tourism data for the first quarter of 2024 already suggests a major upswing, and a recently launched initiative by the St. Maarten Tourism Bureau and the St. Maarten Hospitality & Trade Association is focused on ramping up off-season travel to SXM. All of these catalysts bode well for the St. Maarten and St. Martin real estate market, as well as for condo and villa owners that leverage St. Martin Sotheby's International Realty's property management services as these various initiatives are likely to increase occupancy and rental bookings.
Tickets for the new flights to St. Maarten will be available to book on American Airlines' website immediately.
