Changes at SXM (St. Martin Airport)

About two weeks ago, St Maarten lifted the ban on liquids and gels in carry-on luggage. But, there are restrictions. You can carry on up to 90 milliliters of liquid, but only if it was purchased in a secure area of the airport and is packed in a transparent, plastic bag (for example, a ZipLoc bag). It will be necessary to await the opening of the new terminal in order to purchase duty-free liquor or perfume in a designated secure area. Until then, the liquor and perfume shops in the current airport will remain closed.

Below is the schedule for the opening of the new airport according to a vendor who will have a business in the new terminal:


  • October 10: Provide plan to migrate on October 15

  • October 15: New terminal completed

  • October 16: Access control operational

  • October 18-19: Dry run for 2 days with a small airline

  • October 23: Cutover and start of operations
