While the management of the international airport said on Friday that it would be ready to invite airlines to return to St Maarten in mid-June and that it was awaiting the green light from the government, the latter has just refused the return of commercial flights in June for fear of a resumption of the epidemic.
While the major airlines had scheduled flights to St. Maarten (KLM, Delta, American) in June, this decision will put an end to their plans to quickly resume operations and bring passengers back to our region.
The first commercial flights are postponed to 1er July according to the latest statements to FaxInfo from Juliana Airport Manager Brian Mingo.
There will only be "cargo" flights to gradually revive normal activity on the island, according to an Air France stopover manager. Indeed, the island's supermarkets and restaurants receive most of their “fresh” foodstuffs by cargo freight from Europe and for the moment no KLM or Air France “freight” flights land in Juliana.
The return to normal will still have to wait, and territorial continuity will only be ensured for another month by a compulsory passage at the Raizet airport in Pointe-à-Pitre.
Note that if you want to leave or return within 2 weeks, Air France seats on Pointe-à-Pitre are non-existent because they have all been sold.
Fortunately, the resumption of Corsair and Air Caraibes flights between the metropolis and Guadeloupe planned for mid-June will free up travel possibilities for those who are still waiting to return home or return to Saint-Martin.
