Find Cheap Flights from New York John F Kennedy Intl to Simpson Bay Princess Juliana (JFK - SXM)

Cons: Everyone boarded on time and were seated ready for takeoff and we sat at the gate for another 30 minutes before taxiing to the runway. When I got on the plane, it was freezing. It was the coldest flight I had ever been on, and I was told I would have to pay $5 for a blanket. I had come off of a flight from Europe, and was tired and probably not at my best, but the flight attendant was a little snarky with me because she thought I was asking for refreshments rather than to get up and get a jacket out of the overhead. She wasn't really listening to what I was saying. JFK was its usual ugly, no sense of design, loud barking people yelling out orders and a loud alarm at the gate with no one doing anything to shut it off for about 10 minutes. It left me with a headache. I wanted to go back to Portugal where comfort, aesthetics, and human decency were evident.

Pros: The usual JetBlue friendly, comfortable, and on time experience. Best of the bunch for economy to St Martin.

Cons: Best of the bunch, but that’s not saying much for economical air travel in the US in 2018.

Pros: The flight attendant helped me find a place for my carry on and even stowed it for me. That almost never happens! Leg room was more than I expected. No delays.

Cons: Entertainment system had to be rebooted 4 times on the return trip. Not a big deal, as I always have plenty of reading material to pass the time.

Pros: Extra space in seats and friendly crew

Cons: More variety of snacks.

Pros: Cabin crew were very good. Very pleasant.

Cons: Unpacking wet clothes from one of my bags. It must have been left out in the rain for some time. I filed a separate complaint with Delta.

Pros: Delta flights are usually on time and the staff is always polite and helpful

Cons: Both my departure and arrival flight were delayed and I was not please with delay.

Cons: Sat on the tarmac for 20 Minutes, after taking off late. Arrived to my connecting gate 10 Minutes prior to scheduled departure with no delta attendants in sight and watched my plane sit at the gate and pull away with no way to get on board. Now I’m waiting unnecessarily for 4 hours on another flight.

Pros: Food quality was above average (compared to Air France, for instance). On-board entertainment system offers a lot of movies or tv series, assuming it is in working order.

Cons: A negative point for the entertainment system is the variety of movies - all US based movies. Other airlines mix in foreign movies, Delta is squarely US centric. Also, the entertainment system didn't properly work until rebooted, but flight attendants could not be contacted to get this done timely (cannot call attendants through a non-functional screen). Another concern is the noise level of the cabin, but it's mostly due to passengers.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Everything

Pros: Crew was nice and flight enjoyable

Pros: Free tv which is rare

Cons: I had selected my seats ahead of time and they weren’t kept. Day of I tried to buy a seat and it told me there were tech issues and I had to go to a front desk to check in/purchase. Well all that got me was the very last row, middle seat. No recline and seriously no leg room or breathing room once the person in the row ahead leans back. Crew was not helpful. Not to mention, the security line was outrageously long and I got to my flight just before it left only to find out my seating arrangement and be presented with more disappointment. Took over an hour where I’ve never waited more than 20 minutes in this airport (I fly often). Didn’t have time to go to BR or grab a snack Then my second flight was (again another middle seat) way too warm. The attendants said “there’s nothing we can do”. I was so nauseous and uncomfortable the whole time.

Pros: The flight crew was terrific, and the pilot provided good information on the cause of the delay, and expected deoarture and arrival.

Cons: We were 80 minutes late leaving Portland. Fortunately I did not have a connecting flight and the late arrival was a nuisance and not a problem.

Pros: Great crew

Cons: Wi-Fi not working or hard to get to work. Flight was delayed by an hour and service was very rushed.

Pros: Better than average entertainment system for domestic flights.

Cons: Boarding done against logic: my seat was in the last 5 rows of the cabin and I was scheduled to board in the final group. When I got to my seat the first 30 rows were nearly fully, but the back of the plane was half empty. The whole time the gate agent was urging passengers to move faster through the aisle, but Delta should really rethink its boarding strategy. It shouldn't take 40 minutes to board a 757.

Pros: Free movies

Cons: Boarding

Pros: Excellent crew.

Cons: Could not get the delta Wi-Fi to work. Also my seat nearphone jack was broken.
