actually, the cheapest way would be to swim. Just tow some gatorade with you!

If there is anyone out there still searching for Chicago housing starting on March 2-3, let me know ASAP..

Winair and the Ferry are the ONLY two ways to get to the island (unless you swim). You'll just have to call them both and compare pricing. Winair will get your there faster, and without getting you seasick.

You can also hire a local SXM fisherman to bring you. (Just ask the 30 or so people who had to do that in September, when the Dawn II was tango uniform in SXM...)

I chose to spend another night in SXM with my son...

All of that having been said, I would choose Winair! It's worth the few dollars extra.

Well, actually I've heard you can hire a helicopter as well, but the price is $180 a head.

I realize that it probably varies person to person, but if you take a ferry and you worry about motion sickness, I can vouch for the effectiveness of Meclizine. I buy it under the name of Bonine.

I am *very* susceptible to motion sickness if I haven't been on a boat for a while, and this stuff works 100% for me every time if I take it about an hour ahead of time.

In my other life I drive dive boats and I was taking this stuff every day until I acclimated to being on the water again. I never had a problem with seasickness unless I forgot to take it. (We're talking 5 days a week, 6 hours a day on a boat.) If it works as well for you as it does for me, you'll be fine.

how far is the ferry place from the airport?

Anyone have advice for those traveling in August? It is in the middle of hurricane season. Ferry could be an alternative if flights are canceled. Any experiences/advice?
