Welcome to the Tracking Thread for St. Maarten and Princess Juliana International Airport (SXM/TNCM). Last September, Hurricane Irma devastated the Caribbean (Including SXM). Many airlines suspended service to SXM as they deemed that the island wasn’t fit for service.
Over the next couple of months into the coming years, SXM will be rebuilding and airlines will be reannoucing/announcing service to the island.
