Plane traffic on Saturdays?

[SteelerCruiser]

We will be in port on the Valor on a Saturday next month. Looking forward to spending some time at Maho watching planes. Just wondering how the plane traffic will be. Also what is the peak times for arrivals on Saturday?

 

Thanks!

There was not much plane traffic when we were there 2 weeks ago on a Monday. I was told by the locals that each month more and more planes will arrive and depart, so plane traffic will pick up next month. The usually perk times for planes landing and arriving has been from 12-3 pm.

 

There will be a surfboard at the Sunset Bar and Grill listings all arrivals for that day.

 

The flight schedule below is only for a 24 hour period. When it get closer to your sail date, a week before, check the schedule below on the *day* you will arrive. So if you arrive on a Saturday, check the Saturday prior to arrival and you'll see all the arrivals and departures times for each airline.

You will be fine Saturday is a big timeshare turn over day and the AI's often go Sat-Sat. In the winter months 12-2:30 would be the time that I would suggest is best but check the schedule for the Saturday prior to yours and that should give you a better idea of when the best time for your port day will be.

I was there on a Saturday back in January and saw lots of plane traffic. The larger planes come between 12-2pm.

 

Maho is a fine way to spend the day. We enjoyed and are looking forward to getting back there next year.
