Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Princess Juliana Intl. Airport to DTW last minute?
Booking your journey from Princess Juliana Intl. Airport to Metro Airport last minute could save you some dough if you strike it lucky and find a terrific deal. However, fares typically don’t come down in price as the date of departure nears. If you wait, flights could also be booked solid or the best seats gone (because no one wants the middle seat). If you want to be on the safe side, book well in advance of the date you want to leave. In fact, Expedia has some of the biggest deals up to a year in advance. If your preferred carrier hasn’t released its airfares yet, check back regularly as offers are updated on Expedia all the time.
