top agent Posted August 24, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 24, 2016 We would like to take a 10AM flight out of St Martin on Feb 18. Itinerary for Wind Surf says ship will dock at 6AM. Will we be able to get off the ship and to the airport for a 10AM flight? Has anyone done this before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sb44 Posted August 24, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 24, 2016 You'll be able to disembark around 7:30. Traffic around the island if its during the week can back up because its an island with few major roads. Weekend morning no problem. The airport should be easy as far as security but you need to take all of that into consideration. Most likely you will make it but what is the alternate plan?

sb44 Posted August 24, 2016 #3 Share Posted August 24, 2016 P.S. if memory serves I thinknthe airport is about 20 minutes from ship. Its about a 5 minute walk when you get off to get to the taxi pickup area. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridethetide Posted August 25, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 25, 2016 When we disembarked in St. Maarten in April, there was a large golf cart that transported us to the terminal from the ship. It took about 5 minutes. If you disembark with the earliest group, you should be able to make the 10:00 am flight without a problem. You can certainly get to the airport by 9:00 am, especially if it is a weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
top agent Posted August 25, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted August 25, 2016 We would prefer to take a 10AM flight out of St Martin. Our other option is not until 1:40PM. Since they are both connecting flights, the 10AM would get us home about 5 hrs earlier. We'll do if we must, but would like to get out and get home earlier. Thanks for your thoughts.

sb44 Posted August 25, 2016 #6 Share Posted August 25, 2016 If you're going weekend morning I'd go for it. Let WS reception desk know you want to be in first group off so they can give you proper color tags for your bags. We don't do their transfer but if you are going to, talk to them about times. That will also change your tag color. I would suggest a cab on your own and you should be good other than an unforseen event. Getting luggage from WS is generally easy but don't forget its "island time" at the baggage pick up/taxi area. You're lucky there's a later flight so if things go badly there's another option.
